Life Lessons of a Natural Blonde!
My roots don’t lie, y’all. It’s all natural! Being a blonde is a lot of fun (Just ask Marilyn Monroe! And, no we are not related!) But we do get a bad rep sometimes. Maybe some of it is deserved…! I thought I would share a few words of wisdom that I have learned as a natural blonde. Some thoughts are more serious than others, so sit back and don’t look for a common thread. After all, these are the ramblings of a true blonde!
-
Be yourself. Own who you are.
-
Don’t take life too seriously. If you can’t laugh at yourself, you’re setting yourself up for trouble. Things happen. How you look at it is your decision.
-
Look for the positive in all things. It is there if you will just look.
-
Don’t rush and never settle. If it’s God’s will, it will be.
-
Accept constructive criticism as it comes, but consider all opinions wisely.
-
If you don’t want people to know about it, don’t do it!
-
Never Google your ailments.
-
Listen to your Daddy. He’s usually right. (Yes, Daddy I admit that you are 99% right about things. Except the whole red suspenders thing…Embarrasses me to death!)
-
Don’t take Facebook quizzes too seriously. I am “a male, mid-50s with a purple aura and my Disney princess soul-sister is Mulan”. Huh?
-
Wear your seatbelt.
-
Manage your stress before it manages you. (That was wise, wasn’t it? Grin.)
-
Listen to your body. But don’t Google what it tells you!
-
Follow the directions on your prescription. Trust me on this one…!
-
Look both ways before you cross the street. You never know when a Mustang will come over the hill at 60 miles an hour while you are in the middle of the road… Again, trust me on this one!
-
No tanning. I didn’t get this pale by laying in the sun.
-
Make home your home. It is your safe space where you can be creative, relaxed and just you. If you want to lose the bra – or your pants – by all means. Just get it together before I get there!
-
Pay off your debt. Even this blonde knows that credit cards can be the devil!
-
No smoking. At least around me.
-
Make sure the glass door is open before you go running through it…!
-
Take care of your skin. (See number 11.)
-
Schedule time each day to do nothing.
-
Dogs are your best friends.
-
Go to church as often as possible. (Yes, there can be a few hypocrites there, but I can’t imagine a better place for them. I hate that excuse!)
Well, there you have it! Life lessons from a true blonde. Maybe we know a thing or two after all! We aren’t that out there are we? I saw this on Pinterest and it describes me exactly. Applications are now being accepted for the man who meets these requirements!
