There is an old poem that my Grandma M used to tell me… I believe it is called “Monday’s Child” and it goes a little like this…
Monday’s child is fair of face,
Tuesday’s child is full of grace,
Wednesday’s child is full of woe,
Thursday’s child has far to go,
Friday’s child is loving and giving,
Saturday’s child must work for a living,
But the child that’s born on the Sabbath day,
Is fair and wise and good and gay.
~Unknown
I used to joke that this was a bunch of bs because I was a Tuesday girl and graceful and I were not even in the same room –I was a clumsy one 😀 However, I was listening to a radio show not long ago, and had an “A HA” moment. Tuesday kids are not necessarily graceful but grace-FULL! It only took me most of my 40 plus years to realize that grace not only means moving with ease, style and making things look effortless but it’s other meaning is generous, free, something unexpected and undeserved. Those few seconds on the radio spurred something in me–it inspired me to step out of my head and follow my heart and stand in a place of love.
While that all sounds fantastic and wonderful, I am still human, so this will be a place where I share a little about some things I have learned in my life–lessons hard fought for and some things that still amaze me.
So, welcome, my dear friends–let’s walk this path of learning to be grace-FULL together!
love n hugs….
