10 things I KNOW…

Daily writing promptList 10 things you know to be absolutely certain.View all responses

Did you know that to “know” something is to perceive it? Yes, that’s right, it’s accurate. I saw this prompt and couldn’t help but get in here to share what I know. I sincerely hope that it will provide a point of reflection for you, inspiration, and some real talk. (written in no particular order of course!)

  1. God is very real.
  2. Beware of those who say they know.
  3. Kindness wins some of the time, but love wins every time.
  4. People will show you who they are the first time. It’s the inability or plain refusal to trust what we’ve seen that negatively impacts our perception.
  5. There is a huge lack of language surrounding emotions for a lot of reasons but primarily because instead of encouraging people to recognize their emotions, we stop them- we hush them- or we don’t listen well.
  6. Men & women DO think differently.
  7. Children’s voices matter & their opinions matter too.
  8. The gift of being alive is just that: a gift, but to live freely is the ideal living experience.
  9. There is NO right way one way to parent a child because every child requires something a little different.
  10. Time is the most underestimated currency we have. Frequently people will use your time as if it is indispensable without ever considering the value of YOUR time. Be better than that and thank people for their time.

That’s right, the very essence of saying “I know” implies that there’s no additional learning to be done. What I believe is that there is always learning to be done. Have a wonderful well managed day!
