"BE WHO YOU ARE AND SAY WHAT YOU FEEL BECAUSE THOSE WHO MIND DON'T MATTER AND THOSE WHO MATTER DON'T MIND" Dr. Seuss
As I said before I love quotes of many different venues I have a great many of them that I love from Dr. Seuss his words are magical to me and make sense
In my younger years I guess I was a bit shy and scared to speak my mind so to speak for fear my family and friends would be upset with me and I being the youngest would not want to rock the boat
I watched my brothers and a few of my sisters do it and I would always think to myself if I only had the courage to speak my mind well as I have gotten older I have done just that sometimes I put my foot in my mouth but at least I say what I feel
Sunday my daughter and I were doing something on the computer and she went to her homepage and had this quote on it yesterday I did not really pay attention and as I was going through my books of quotes today I came across this one it was the exact same one my daughter had on her homepage!
my children pointed out that I along with my husband have told them this. not the exact quote but to say (what they feel to be truthful to who they are) I was astonished that they have taken it to heart.
I sat there in a daze I have never showed my quote books to them or anyone because they are private to me in the sense that I enjoy and escape in their meaning and yet some how they seem to come up in my children's thoughts. The Lord works in such great ways.!!!
This is so excellent, and to full of wisdom. I too shy away from always saying what I feel. This was a good reminder to be who we are....but with love and grace.
I love Dr. Seuss as well. It seems easier these days to say something negative that it is to say something postive like I love you. I try to say what is on my mind. The truth will set you free.
