Things I've learned these last few days

1. Reassurance can come from the least expected place.

2. Energy should not be taken for granted (personal physical energy, or electric/natural resources for that matter!)

3. Faith is the only thing that keeps us going

4. Pillows should be appreciated

5. Often men don't have any idea what things to 'protect' their wives from, but they sure will just about kill themselves trying to protect us from everything, even if it turns out counter productive. (I sure do love him for it!)

6. My daughter is way more knowledgeable than I gave her credit for.

7. No matter what happens, I am blessed beyond measure because my God is always there for me, holding my hand and my heart.

8. Careless words can wound deeply.

9. A gentle touch and a good laugh can make most things more bearable

10. Ignorance isn't always bliss

11. Haste makes waste (I know, it's pretty cliche, but so true)

12. While idle hands may be the Devil's playthings, busy hands sure can get exhausting

13. True friends are invaluable!

14. Compassion can be found in the least expected places

15. We never know when others are learning from us, try to live each moment as if it may save someone.
