Slogan for Today – Easy Does It - 9/14/15


Easy Does It: The slogan, Easy Does It helps us remember

that trying to force solutions often does not work. We may not

be able to solve every problem in the time frame we wish to

solve it in. Some problems may not be for us to solve.

Sometimes a gentler, more patient approach is more effective

and less frustrating. 

FAITH = Finding Answers In The Heart

Thanks Debb - this is another one for me (remember me ... the one who can complicate everything?

Easy Does It reminds me that there is a line between me and others and issues. Looking closely and taking time to ponder helps me realize when the line should be crossed for me - my issues to work on, and when I should not - another person's issue.

I still at times want to jump in and 'help'. Because of step work and program work, I am getting better at that.

Hugs for a great thread and a great share!!!
