Day 4: Don’t Take Yourself So Seriously
10/04/2011
Seriously
Don’t take yourself so seriously
Don’t walk around as if you are carrying the whole world
That it will tilt when you smile
That it will shake when you giggle
That it will fall when you chuckle.
Don’t be afraid
To be funny
To be tad silly
To express yourself freely.
Some people actually wish
That you don’t take yourself so seriously
Because your frown lines aren’t lovely!
–
It’s Day 4 of Feeling Good! And I have a question for you!
Being the First Lady, what would you do to make the whole nation smile?
Now don’t take the question seriously if your husband isn’t the President, okay?
But hey, you can convince him to run.
Seriously, think about it — to not be afraid to loosen up.
A joyful heart is good medicine, But a broken spirit dries up the bones.
– Proverbs 17:22

I’m so glad it’s okay to not be serious all the time. :0
What would I do to make the nation smile? Smile a lot myself. Smiles are kind of contagious!
God bless you as you help us lighten up today!

What a wonderful post! And I couldn’t agree more!
Hope you are well darling, sorry for not passing by more often, been a little busy recently. Love to the kiddos 😉

Wow! I am totally awed by the power of the universe! I have just mentioned to Luna how the universe has a way of sending someone in our thoughts and here you are! How can I not think about my most creative friend here in blog land with that outfit? lol!
I totally understand being ‘busy’. It has cost my visits to my blog friends and I can’t tell you how much I missed you and others. You’re all in my heart, so dear. One of these days I will bolt in to your place without knocking! My kiddos will surely smile with the love you sent to them. Thank you so much Alan! Blessings to you and your family 🙂

Yes, JMJ’s subscriber name in my blog is now ‘No more blogging’. I hope too that she is happy busy and it’s her dream come true if she’s signing now her published book! Let’s not be surprised if we receive each a copy from her 🙂
