As in, do you take time to stop & smell the roses?
Do you take delight in wearing your 'Sunday Best' even on other days?
Or do you have precious china that you save for 'special' ocassions only? Pefrume or cologne that you only wear on big nights out?
I know that somewhere along the line, just about everyone has read the bit about the husband who was packing up his wife' belongings, after she passed, and found her 'good' perfumes, her 'frilly' clothing--all things she never used because she was saving them for 'special' ocassions. Some of her things still had the price tags attached--she never got the chance to use them, wear them, etc.
Well, when I read it, I took it to heart. I don't want to be one of those people. I want to enjoy the things I have...NOW. I want to appreciate them...NOW.
I really am not a materialistic person, but I have 'good' perfumes & a nice china set. I use both as often as I can. No sense in having 'things' if you don't enjoy them, right? So what do you do to enjoy your life, with your 'stuff?'
One of my favorite 'treats' for ME is to use my good china for no particular reason...
WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
