Daddy’s Little Girl

Whenever my father calls, the first thing he says in his deep and resonant baritone voice,

“Hi there, little girl, this is your father!”

As though I would not know that!  I am a 5’10” middle aged woman, and I’m still his “Little Girl” – go figure!

But I’ve got to tell you something… I am a Daddy’s girl!  I know who I am because my Daddy loves me and I am blessed because he’s still here on this planet at the age of 77 year old as of this coming May!  Even when my parents divorced, I never, ever questioned his love for me.  THAT IS SO IMPORTANT for a little girl. 

I know that so many of us have poor self esteems and relate to men so badly because, Daddy just wasn’t there.  A good relationship with a man is really strongly tied to a woman’s relationship with her dad.  It will affect how she relates to all men!

This video says it all… It really brought me back to the time when I was a little girl and my Daddy would go out of his way to play with me and my brother, and he really would get into!

I hope you too are a Daddy’s Girl too!

That 1/2 Full Glass… Put it Down!

A psychologist walked around a room while teaching stress management to an audience. As she raised a glass of water, everyone expected they’d be asked the “half empty or half full” question.  Instead, with a smile on her face, she inquired: “How heavy is this glass of water?”

Answers called out ranged from 8 oz. to 20 oz.

She replied, “The absolute weight doesn’t matter. It depends on how long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it’s not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I’ll have an ache in my arm. If I hold it for a day, my arm will feel numb and paralyzed. In each case, the weight of the glass doesn’t change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.” She continued, “The stresses and worries in life are like that glass of water. Think about them for a while and nothing happens. Think about them a bit longer and they begin to hurt. And if you think about them all day long, you will feel paralyzed – incapable of doing anything.”

Remember to put the glass down
