RE: Count thy Blessings.

in Reflections6 days ago

I'm so sorry you still haven't found out where LIly and her Mum are.

Yes, you have many blessings, and the wisest thing to do is share them, for sure - you're doing alright. Couldn't help but laugh at 'looks' in your list of blessings though. My husband thinks I'm the most beautiful women in the world, but he has poor eyesight. I'm just blessed he thinks so.

Sort:  

I am sure Jamie's eyesight is just fine. But you are right, we should all share our blessings the best we can.

I always joke the other way around with Ellie, that I'm lucky that her eyesight isn't the best and she generally wears neither glasses nor contacts. But that's in comparison to her. She's just stunningly beautiful.

I'm neither a fan of arrogance nor of false modesty. I try to be self-aware, and part of that is that I'm generally good looking by the current standards of society. There are some days that isn't true, of course 😅 And the effects that has are important as well. How people react to you, how they estimate you superficially. I don't think it's a good thing that society is like that, but it's really hard to ignore it. Mostly an instinct I guess.
