The Badge I Wear ... Guest Post at The M.O.B. Society

Mom.

It’s a badge of honor, that moniker, that tells the world of all the wounds I’ve kissed, the hugs I’ve given (and those I’ve received), and the battlefields I’ve lived upon.

But there are other words, so much harder to hear.

... For the rest of the story, go check out my guest post at The M.O.B. Society today! For those of you that aren't familiar, this is a wonderful, encouraging resource for Mothers of Boys.

Words I Wish I Wrote

When you are describing,
A shape, or sound, or tint;
Don't state the matter plainly,
But put it in a hint;
And learn to look at all things,
With a sort of mental squint.
~Lewis Carroll

Often people attempt to live their lives backwards; they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want, so they will be happier. The way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then do what you need to do, in order to have what you want. ~Margaret Young

To think creatively, we must be able to look afresh at what we normally take for granted. ~George Kneller
