(Quote by Lillian Hellman)
Bless his big heart. Perry has listened to my chatter for the past 7+ months about a particular personal matter that's been on my mind. Last night over dinner, I asked him to listen as I vented about more of the mess that was slowly unfolding. He in turn whipped out the "because I care for you, I gotta say this" bit... And. he. was. so. right! I need to stop being a people-pleaser. I have a lot to get off my chest and will spend some time considering the best way to confront said person without being brash, abrasive, or hurtful. That's the last thing I want to do!
Speaking of dinner, the vegetable-of-the-day was fresh steamed green beans from our nextdoor neighbor, Howard. He brought over bags FULL of blessings! We now have a watermelon, 7 ears of corn, 7 banana peppers, 5 hot red peppers, 4 yellow squash, 2 cucumbers, 2 tomatoes, and lots of green beans :)
