Those words keep running through my head. I am good enough, I do deserve nice things.
where did all this come from, I am not sure, but, I think it has to do with getting thrown into care taker role.
Everything I was doing, was for someone else. To make sure that someone was comfortable, full, clean and for as much as I am able happy.
So, I stopped doing anything and everything, that I considered extra. Things as simple as setting a pretty table, my mind would go to why bother!
So--I declare today step one day.
I am going to make those special napkins, I am going to decorate my little front porch.
I am going to tell myself, I do deserve nice things.
Yes, you do deserve special things, Nonie. I know what you mean though. I've spent most of my life taking care of the dear people around me. Moving to the mountains, I have found that I am taking care of myself more and doing little things that make me happy.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice and pleasant Memorial Day, Nonie. That flower is so pretty. It almost looks like a coral color. : )

Good for you Sherri, it is so easy to put yourself last. I am trying to break that. Yes, isn't that a pretty color for a rose? I would love a yard full of that color.
DeleteGood for you! So many things just take over, and we all let go of things that make us happy. I'm trying to do the same thing.
ReplyDeleteShirley, maybe we need to form a group. We could call it our support group.
ReplyDeleteNonie, set yourself a pretty table and decorate your porch. Those little things can brighten your day!
