Gone South

I decided to keep my granddaughters until Christmas. I also had to work, begin preparing food for Christmas, finish housekeeping necessities, and finish shopping.

I decided to cook pancakes for breakfast, trying to be all grandmotherly but I had forgot we did not have paper plates. I asked my daughter to run to the store to get a pack...her response was yes but she reminded me she was tired and worked the night before.

In my mind, I started my list of things I had done ...worked, paid the bills, purchased Christmas gifts, took care of everybody's everything..but then it hit me....


This is where relationships go south! We are so intent on not being taken advantage of that we keep a record of what we do comparing it against what our partners do and are prepared to give an itemized list if needed. We are not supposed to keep record...We should want to ensure our partners needs are met. Can we truly give our relationships our all if we are constantly doing what we think has been done to us....of course not. As we gracefully walk into 2022, may we leave our old way of handling things behind. Embrace a new way, a better way to help nurture our relationships. Be a blessing to your partner....don't lend but give. Talk about when you do not get what you need without mentioning what you gave
