THRIVING THURSDAY

 

Welcome to Pondering with a Purpose –by Brenda Youngerman

Today's prompt is: Handle

I can handle writing this blog because I can handle everything. I have a handle on the ways and means of being retired. I can handle knitting and crocheting baby outfits and blankets for all the newborns this year. I can handle my swimming exercise lessons even though the instructor pushes us to work harder.

I can handle letting my husband be in charge of the finances because he can plan the most awesome trips. I can even handle him winning at “hand and Foot” because he lets me try and try again to beat him.

I can handle the requests made by my granddaughters and be there for them while their Mommy looks after the baby. I can handle their requests to go to the playground and watch them slide and swing in the park.

I have handles on my kitchen cabinets that have fruit on them. I have old fashioned door handles on our other doors in keeping with the period they were installed.

I don’t give handles to people. They are who they are and don’t need handles attached to them. I hope everyone can handle what life throws at them with love and laughter. Thanks for pondering and hope you have a handle on your day too.

Love this post. It took me a minute to catch on to what was going on. I think I'm reading way to late. haha
I loved this Judy, it tells me you are in harmony with your life, you can indeed handle it, and it sounds like you do! We have to be our own best friend, cheerleader, and supporter before anyone else will see that in us clearly. I also agree with you that it's not our job to handle or put handles on other people. Our only action is to make them a part of our life or choose not to have them there, what they choose to be and do is up to them. Great post!
