This is a lovely post my friend. I love those Glimmers, and I feel/see them daily. Also, I need a Grilled cheese Sammy, and the only proper way to cut it is on the diagonal.
Excellent timely post, Sporticus! I like the idea of watching for glimmers -- I'm already experiencing one just reading your blog today with my favourite coffee!
This post hits home for me. The best advice I try to keep to is in the saying "comparison is the thief of joy". I try not to compare myself to people who are much more successful, wealthier and happier etc than me. I look at myself based on my own path and progress. Thanks for the post. Liam. :)
I sometimes wonder what to actually do to “practice self care”, because I just don’t know. Maybe I do it and don’t realize it. Sometimes people (not you) describe it in an off hand way to disparage taking care of others and they themselves don’t really know what it means.
A beautiful,heartwarming and very uplifting post dear Debra 🥹🥰♥️ I totally agree to each line you shared. I loved Buddha’s quote yes valuing ourselves is important because it’s the origin of compassion for others.one who can’t love himself or respect himself can never share it with others around 🥰 Thanks 🙏♥️
I seriously love this post and will try to heed the advice. I’m looking for glimmers already, and this is one of them (as are you).
ReplyDelete🙋♀️ I second that, MwM!! Debra, you are a glimmer for me every day! 🥰
Delete100%!! Thank you Debra!
Delete...you can't care for others if you don't care for yourself.
ReplyDeleteSage advice, all of it.
ReplyDeleteI'll look for the glimmers.
I was glimmering yesterday in a very remote forest with just myself and my little dog.
ReplyDeleteSelf care is life saving.
