We need to choose kindness, it matters and we never know how a kind word might change someone's day or life.Becky@Beyond The Picket Fencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01703689071243759492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7713737015238007071.post-45441245502240077862017-02-07T17:11:53.110-07:002017-02-07T17:11:53.110-07:00I love it!

What a sweet memories you have of the things that are really important--the small moments with our families. I heard today we can take relationships with us to heaven, i.e. people, but not things. And isn't it amazing how a kind word can make us feel so much better?! Have a blessed day!Becky@Beyond The Picket Fencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01703689071243759492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7713737015238007071.post-12552537080988608922017-02-07T05:38:34.366-07:002017-02-07T05:38:34.366-07:00What a great post Becky .

Also, you have made my day, (well actually my night, I'm getting ready to turn in) simply by adding the saying of what goes around, comes around. My dear dad used to say that to me & he has been gone a very long time. I still try to live by that sentiment. You obviously are a very kind person yourself. It shows in your words. Again, thank you for this comment. God bless.<br />P.S. My son has a job where he is frequently doing customer service over the phone & he told me that at least once a day he has to deal with an angry customer. That makes his job even harder. I wish everyone would practice a little patience & understanding.

We all like to hear things like that but too often people don't express themselves or take the time. Sure glad she let you know. <br />When I have to tackle something over phone have been dreading and person on other end has been helpful and pleasant I try to tell person how much they were appreciated. When I worked had to deal with people on phone so always made effort to help and be nice. What goes around comes around, does it hurt to be pleasant and helpful?Nope.<br /> Enjoy rest of your weeksrpprcrftrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02861352034915359506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7713737015238007071.post-59198741904315428652017-02-06T21:49:06.300-07:002017-02-06T21:49:06.300-07:00Well this is totally a hum-drum comment, but thoug...Well this is totally a hum-drum comment, but thought I'd throw it out there anyway. Today I cleaned out my nightstand. Finally! Exciting, huh? It was spilling out on me every time I opened the door. My nightstand is one of those replica ice-box freezers, hence the door. Anyway, it was a mess. It took me more than an hour. Which is long for such a little space. I would have been done much sooner if I hadn't felt compelled to re-read about half of the greeting cards that I have saved in a photo album. My favorites are the ones that my 2 sons made for me. My younger son wrote in one that I am the best mom in the "hole" world. Priceless treasures to all of one person; me! I also read about my older sons 21st birthday. I wrote about it in one of my many journals that I had planned on writing in everyday. Sadly I didn't keep it up. I wish I had. It was fun to relive that happy event through that journal entry. Well that's all. I now have a nice orderly nightstand & a smile on my face from some happy thoughts & memories. <br /><br />P.S. Saturday at work a lady that I rang up commented to me that I was a lovely person.She also said that I was very pleasant. It was very busy that day & I was working hard. She made my day. I often pray that I would be a blessing to others as I would desire that they would be a blessing unto me. That was a lovely answer to my prayer that day.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10832910571454797097noreply@blogger.com
