I was talking to my sisters on our monthly 3-way telephone gab session ..
On this particular call we were celebrating my sister Janet's birthday ..
My other sister Claudia and I had decided to sing Happy Birthday to her after I got them both on the line .. she joined in, so we were ALL singing..
It sounded like a version of "conflicted voices meeting a bunch of drunken, crazy women, all singing the wrong song, with a different mish mash of unintelligible
off key madness"..
I know you've all heard that version of a song or songs when your friends try to sing along with you..
Laughter ensued..
Our conversation was one of sharing with each other, our recent colorful Christmas's, it's joys, a bit of sadness as well ..
We all concluded, before we hung up, that we were all standing by a bit of truth.
It's a fact that came to mind when I allow sadness to seep into my thoughts..
I shared my truth..
"JUST SHUT UP AND BE THANKFUL"..
With that, the three of us agreed that it was a mantra we would carry into our New Year..
God Bless and Happy New Year and when things get rough remember ...
"JUST SHUT UP AND BE THANKFUL"...
