You hit the nail on the end when you mention that people are less inclined to work at making people comfortable these days, and I put it down to the fact that we are all so busy, so much so that it feels like "work" to entertain or hang out with friends some times. When I was in my early twenties, I remember always putting my friends first and making sure that they were comfortable etc. Now, I am lucky to get myself to the event myself! It reminds me again that it really is important to get your priorities right and that includes time for yourself, your friends and loved ones. Work, bills and other "stuff" has to wait in the line!! Jo Hi Simone

As you reflected on your Nanna and "simpler" days, it brought back memories of my own Grandma. She always gave more than she had to give and regardless of how hard times were in her life, a huge smile was always present on her face--a beautiful smile on her beautiful face! Definitely a lot to think about.... I’ve really enjoyed reading this post. As you reflected on your Nanna and “simpler” days, it brought back memories of my own Grandma.

Don't you think sometimes that modern thinking is less about actually thinking and more about just doing as you have always done or how society has conditioned us? I think that active acceptance could go a long way to healing a lot of our modern hurts. S. Hi Lidia,

Very powerful. Hi,
