Relax, it's just Life!

See – it would have been wasted energy to fret and get mad about the spaghetti on the rug. It all came out in the wash (so to speak).

Even if it hadn’t – it was just a broken bowl, a bit of messy spaghetti, an inexpensive rug, a few minutes used up that I hadn’t expected. When my children were small it was imperative to weigh out what was important. On one hand the self-esteem and life long feelings of my child / on the other, loosing a few possessions and extra messes. To me, the choice will always be the little (or big) human.

Mama taught me “Material possessions come and go. Hearts and feelings stay with us throughout our lives. People are always the most important.” She was right.
