A selfie? |
Have you
ever heard the adage, “you learn a new lesson every day?” I’ve learned that
lessons are found in many different situations. Today’s blog post is a
combination of lessons learned during my daily interactions.
The Principal’s List
My cousin
who lives out of state posted a statement on her Facebook page about a proud
moment. She said her daughter made the Principals
List. I congratulated her on a job well done. Then a thought occurred to
me.
A number of
years ago my son made the Principals List
too…it wasn’t a good thing. Thanks goodness kids mature…eventually.
I have
learned to eat an elephant one bite at a
time (another adage I’ve heard often). I challenge you to do the same.
Celebrate the successes of others, turn your challenges into stepping stones
and live each day with joy.
The Photograph
Spending
time with family is always entertaining for me. Recently I hung out with my
nieces who I had not seen in a while. In my excitement, I said to my niece, “Let’s
take a selfie.”
She simply
said, “A selfie is one person.”
“Ok, then
what is it called when there are two people?”
“A picture.”
I learned
from my niece that I am not as hip as I thought I was.
In what
situations have you uncovered a lesson lately?
