I went to a seminar a few years ago and the bottom line of it was about KEEPING YOUR WORD. How everything stems from this, when you make a plan, an appointment, or put something in your schedule, if everyone follows through, SUCCESS!
This has always been an important concept to me, and it is interesting that now I am a parent, time definitely has its flexibility, but there is always checking in, and letting everyone know what is going on.
I always feel blessed when I am around other parents because they understand that everything revolves around the kids, and when they are babies its nursing, diapers, and naps. When they are toddlers, it is getting them ready and bringing everything under the sun that you may need. No matter what, whenever there are kids, there is stuff that takes time. I suppose one of the things to do is to give oneself extra time, or do things the day before.
It is nice to contemplate a solution, but honestly kids force us to be in the present, and we just have to deal and do our best, and let people know if we are running late or are held up, I feel as long as we let them know, life is life.
The Yes or No I am talking about is when you are trying to make plans with someone, and they do not say no, but they also do not say yes, so I personally feel stuck until I get a no. Personal example: there is someone that I invited to our Friday night dinner two weeks ago, the Thursday before she told me she may be late, so I told her don't worry about it, do what you got to do this week, and we will plan it for next week. I have contacted her a few times, finally the other day she said she would let me know ASAP, don't you love those words? Late last night I asked again, mainly because we want to figure out how much food to make, usually we do not make too much if it is just us, my husband likes things fresh.
Still no answer today, and it is OK, I will let it go, thank you for letting me vent. I guess I am the type of person that when someone tells me they are going to do something or to meet me, I take them for their word, and have to wrap my whole day, my kids, my plans around their word.
I ultimately always have hope for the human race,
Good Energy attracts Good Energy,
Just Be You, No Matter What,
Have a wonderful weekend,
A Peaceful Shabbat,
Shabbat Shalom
