When I was just a little girl………
I asked my mother, what shall I be?
Will I be pretty? Will I be rich?
Here’s what she said to me:
“You’ve got to be kidding, life is really hard. You will work all the hours you can, maybe make enough money to pay the mortgage but don’t expect time and money to keep yourself beautiful, that will never happen.
Then when you have kids, well your life is over. It’s horrendous, you’ll never get any sleep. They cost so much……”
Imagine if ‘here’s what she said to me’ was actually more like this:
“Darling you can be do or have whatever you want. You just need to get into the right mindset and you can do it! Be lovely to everyone, even if they are mean to you. Keep smiling, keep in your vortex and all will be fantastic!”
Doris Day sure had a lovely song there. I wish we would all just teach our children to relax and know that all will always be ok, no matter what. Instead they get amazing amounts of stress and pressure put on them. Well, in fact, we will all always be ok.
