The following is another post written by my wife…you know…the better half…
You may have heard this song on the latest Rascal Flatt’s CD. (Yes, I am a Rascal Flatts fan!)
I couldn’t help but think of those words recently as my week at work was stressful and it just seemed like things were not coming together as I had hoped. Five o’clock rolled around and it was time to pick up my girls from volleyball practice. As they made their way to the car, I found myself just staring at them thinking, “things that matter, things that don’t.” Somehow the stress of the day took its proper place as I was so grateful to be their mother. Sadly, the things that really don’t matter tend to consume me and the things that really do matter don’t get the energy and focus they deserve. I am going to work on that; reminding myself daily of….”Things that matter, things that don’t.”

Very well said. Those that we Love seem to take a back burner to the things that need to be done. We have to make the things that need to be done the Left Overs for another day, set aside time to make our Loved ones The 6 course meal and Savor Every Moment… Cause you never know when it will be your last time to experience something so Decadent.

“Cool” reminder to all of us, Lisa. How much energy do we waste “sweating the small stuff” that clutters our lives? And what a better use of that energy to remain focused on the primary relationships, spiritual and personal priorities, and business opportunities that align with our truest and best self!
