Quote No. 49 from Encourage Yourself Encourage Others by Anne Devine.
We are all learning to accept the imposed boundaries of lockdown. Some of us are finding it easier than others. Now might be a good time to consider if the boundaries we have in our own lives are helpful or if they could do with being revised. It takes courage and maturity to “Accept that what others do is their business.”

Hi... failte (Irish for welcome! and pronounced fall-thhha).
I'm a newbie to blogging, here just over a year, but what a great year it has been!
I've turned the corner to 50 recently and two things become more relevant...time and experiences!
Material possessions are less important! Using time wisely and truly experiencing each day holds a new significance for me!
Much love,

We were just talking about that again as well. It’s frustrating to listen to those who believe they are “holier then thou”. And yet we are al indeed privy to our own opinions. Thanks Marie.
Thanks for sharing!!.. Actually call it what you will, there is nothing to keep you from walking through the door… however, because you are not only trying to keep yourself safe but thinking of others also, you are honoring the wishes of others and doing what you, yourself, feel is necessary… hopefully if everyone gives a little, a few will not have to give a lot!.. 🙂
Until we meet again..
May the dreams you hold dearest
Be those which come true
May the kindness you spread
Keep returning to you
(Irish Saying)

it is unless they are harming others and then we should step up!
Boundaries are vital for peace 🙂
