I Must Ask for It!

I often get advice. I suppose I must be asking for it, and still, sometimes it feels like it comes out of nowhere. A person I don't believe I have ever seen before came up today and said "Mamm, you need to learn to be more selfless." and then just walked away. When I got home I looked it up. "unselfish · altruistic · self-sacrificing · self-denying · considerate · compassionate · kind · decent · noble · public-spirited · generous · magnanimous · ungrudging · unstinting · charitable · benevolent · liberal · openhanded · philanthropic" It made me laugh right out loud!

How odd. You definitely are selfless.

My husband waited a couple of hours, he was probably really thinking about it. He finally said, "I think that very nice lady has you mixed up with someone else." I thought that was perfect and I laughed all over again.

It is because people feels they are comfortable around you and they want you to succeed and live a happy life.
