There are times in life that you definitely experience a learning curve at a greater level than at other times. Now don't get me wrong, I am a believer of learning something new everyday, however as of late, I feel like I am almost learning something new every waking moment.  I am learning how intelligent about the ways of the world truly was.  Her legacy lives on by what she spoke, how she acted, and her life's work.

ahhhh, to be schooled by her was wonderful...

I was texting a recent interesting person and sent him one of my favorite quips from my grandmother:  "Missy is Missy, Mandi is Mandi and Margaret is Margaret.  People are people, and I'm people!"

What a wise woman she was..."Gram" had so many, many little sayings she used and applied to life so many different times and I love them.  She meant this one in respect to each of us being different, taking different paths, making choices that others may not agree with.  I cannot agree more with her wisdom.  We would often sit and think about the world, and if we only ruled the world how different things would be, but that others may not agree with our decisions.  There's always someone unhappy.  There's always people who don't understand and agree with you or you with them.  In the past six months I have had to accept this more than I'd like to admit.

I have struggled so much with other peoples' choices and understanding why and trying to accept and not judge their choices.  It's been difficult, but I must say at this point I have accepted.

Currently, I am looking at this statement where, I need to admit that, "I am people!" Decisions, life choices, actions, happenings, whatever it may be, not everyone is going to be on the same page.  And, no, it's not the attitude of "I don't care," that I want to explore, it is the idea that I make off-the-wall decisions just like everyone else.  Again, I don't want to say I don't care what you think, because I actually do care. And, I don't want to say that all of my decisions are right - because, HELLO, they aren't...lol, I wish they were...  I want to explore the idea of, right or wrong, although it has taken a while for some, I typically accept people for who and what they are....I definitely want the opposite to happen.

You are you, I am me, people are people, and I am people.... now what are you going to do with it?

Just wondering...
