Words of Wisdom

Today's prompt is one that I am so excited to share with you because I want to share it with the world and shout it from the rooftops!

June 21 - Most recent words of wisdom you heard that stuck with you

My sweet sister in law made some amazing paper flowers for my bridal shower and asked the guests to write words of wisdom on the leaves. The bouquet of paper flowers came home with me and I now enjoy looking at it and rereading the leaves every once in awhile. Some people wrote funny stuff and others wrote serious advice - but I really do cherish them all.

One of the leaves has this written on it:

Take your marriage seriously but take everything else in stride.

Oh how helpful that advice has been. Truly, you do have to respect the union and relationship between you and your spouse but when it comes to everything else it helps to have a sense of humor. I can just imagine how horrible it would be to be married to someone you can't have fun with. Oh.My.God. Bor.ing.

Are there any words of wisdom that you recently heard that have stuck with you?
