What I learned around the table and try to teach to my children…by Elise Johnson

Fill your heart heaping spoonfuls with Unconditional Love
Fill your mind with an overflowing amount of Gratitude
Surround yourself with Family and genuinely good Friends
Laugh hard and often
Stock up on Quality Time with loved ones and those in need
Give to others even when you are struggling
Always Accept graciously
Fill your Cup with Faith
Add a Pound of Patience
Stir in the spirit of Generosity
Welcome all with the warmth of a smile…even when you’re not feeling your best
Live like a blind man and See Only a Person’s Heart
Know no strangers
Learn from those before you
Listen more than you speak…I’m still practicing
Always be Courteous and Caring to others
Treat people How You Wish to be Treated
Do what you love and love what you do Wholeheartedly
Hold dear a Forgiving heart
Try not to judge another-Nobody’s Perfect
Live each day as if it’s your last
Leave a LEGACY

Combine all these ingredients and live a life without regrets! Add other ingredients daily that help you become a better person.
