Being retired means having leftovers for lunch often. With my sweetie still working at the church, it's just me & the kitty. Today as I was preparing to heat up my chicken & broccoli, I thought about mom & how she was very much into presentation, how her meals looked so appetizing, on a tray, with a napkin, small portions of this & that, maybe a dessert. It's all about how you look at things, perspective, if you see something as mundane, boring, uneventful, it will be. Likewise, through grateful eyes, a little preparation and the same thing can be an event/pleasant experience. I LOVE leftovers! What's not to like? Just heat & eat & enjoy again.
Oh how I want to be like her. I know I must be me & develop/recognize/embrace the me that God wants me to be.
How blessed I am to be your daughter Mom.
