Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value
Albert Einstein
This got me thinking of how I can be of value and to whom. I feel valued as a wife, mother, grandmother, daughter in law, sister and so on, is that the same thing? I am of value to them all in one way or another. My challenge this month will be to make myself of value in other ways, I think. I aim to sell and donate more (money as well as items) to charities I care about, I have been of value to my neighbour by feeding her cat for the last 4 weeks without fail, and caring for Ern, the hibernating tortoise :) but I aim to find new ways to be of value to others. This might be more of a challenge than I first thought :/
I will have a ponder and keep you posted. Any suggestions dear followers? Do you have any challenge plans for the new month?
Have a lovely evening everyone x
May I copy this quote for my classroom wall? I think it would be a great point of reference for my kids over the next few weeks.... Thanks for posting about it and good luck with all your plans. Jx
