days 325 and 326




Day 326
Prompt 326
"There is no beautifier of complexion, or form, or behavior, like the wish to scatter joy and not pain around us. ‘Tis good to give a stranger a meal, or a night’s lodging. ‘Tis better to be hospitable to his good meaning and thought, and give courage to a companion. We must be as courteous to a man as we are to a picture, which we are willing to give the advantage of a good light. ”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-82), philosopher, poet, essayist


This is a maxim I try to impart to the children all the time. I have been working on anti-bullying week theis week so have been earnestly discussing two wrongs don't make a right. Which I hope will start to sow seeds of scattering joy not pain. The piccy though is of my complexion beautifiers, well a girl needs a hand you know.

Day 325
Prompt 325

Live your life fom your heart. Share from your heart. And your story will touch and heal people's souls."
—Melody Beattie; author, journalist





I try to always do this, I certainly wear my heart on my sleeve and hence get hurt easily. I have however started to learn not to be too sensitive so maybe there's hope for me yet.
