We Need More Little House on the Prairie Attitude

This resonated with me today.





Where have all the Pa, Ma, Mary and Laura Ingalls gone?  

Why are we over run with Nellie's, Nellie's behavior and Nellie=like MOMS??





This runs personal for all of us, this didn't start over night, it is like little flames that have turned into a burning AMAZON jungle and the Amazon is precious.  People's presence in our life is a gift.  Maybe you do not feel they are the best gift you have received, maybe you wish there was a simple return  policy like Kohl's has, no receipt, no tags, no problem.  But real life relationships do not work like that.

Why do we have to say this?   Why do we not, as adults, know this already?

But we do and we choose to make Mean Nellie Choices anyway........

(and I think the majority of us feel like absolute Sheet afterwards, too and then we beat ourselves up, which doesn't make ourselves feel any better so we go back out and repeat the same cycle.....)

So what does that say about Society?

I do not have a worldwide answer, I am going to try to LIVE this daily

"Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.” 
― Mother Teresa

I'm going to try to say, do, think it all with LOVE at the forefront, for others and for me.  Not pride, not personal gain, not jealousy, envy, sloth, and gluttony.  I am just going to try try try to live what Jesus said

TREAT OTHERS AS YOU WANT TO BE TREATED
