Yes sometimes our dreams come true and somehow they spread us thin...kids, jobs, vacations and the list goes on and on! So I thought I would blog about the sweet moments, tips & tricks in my life that I am referring to as "cupcakes" in my blog! Cupcakes because I just realized recently that cupcakes ALWAYS make me smile; no matter my mood they remind me of festive, fun times, not to mention I am a sugar fein and I have proof of this everytime I pass a mirror. WOW TMI back to the BLOG...please post the ways that you lighten your life.
I am sure my closest friends think I am a "know-it-all" but that is not how I intend to be, I just like to share things that "lighten my load"! And when presented with someone else's situation/problem, I like to try to find solutions. But most of the time I now know I just need to listen more.
However, in saying that I feel I must mention that I am working to "LISTEN up" more to others this year :) And I have found in doing so I benefit. We are not all the same; some of you may HATE cupcakes; what seems like a solution to me maybe easier said than done! Things that make you go hmmm...
My few true friends,those who openly share their feelings/lives with me 2 inparticular, have taught me some much lately. From their struggles I have learned that very rarely are we remembered or loved for the solutions we offer; instead, our listening ear and padded shoulders are what we are MOST appreciated for during the storm.
Next up CUPCAKE #1 the cupcake liner...without it the cake sticks and burns!

This reminded me of a song parody that has been posted on my fridge for many years... it's to the tune of "If You're Happy and You Know It".
ReplyDeleteWhen life's got you overrun, then Lighten Up.
Think of all the good you've done and Lighten Up.
If your job is just half done and your big battle's just half won,
Pat yourself on half your back and Lighten Up.
If you're feeling loaded down then Lighten Up.
Shrug your shoulders, sing a song, and Lighten Up.
With a friend or two beside you and the Savior's love to guide you,
Let some sunshine back inside you-
Lighten Up.
;)
