Being kind to myself.....

I bought these flowers yesterday, I was being kind to myself and they were only $4.50!
I was talking to a lovely friend this morning who is considerably younger than myself. We were talking about stress, worry and nerves and for an instant it was like I was talking to my 22 year old self.  It's amazing how age and experience make you stronger and wiser and sometimes I wish that I knew the things that I know now back then. Over the years I've learnt.....
 
  • to be kind to myself.
  • to smile often.
  • to enjoy the little things in life.
  • to be grateful for all that I have.
  • to not sweat the small stuff.
  • to not let others dictate my happiness.
  • to always be my own person.
  • to think positively. The mind is a powerful thing.
  • to give generously.

What do you know now that you wish you knew when you were younger?

I hope your weekend has been a lovely one so far.

Happy days to you!
