....Nope not one .....
I was thinking on these things after seeing that Australian cleaning Guru Peter Walsh on Oprah when he said :
If you value everything you really value nothing
He was talking to people that had hoarding issues - that needed to hang onto things, and whilst my house is sometimes messy.. I am definately not a hoarder.
So....
I remember some game we played when we were first married at an activity. The questions were all about your spouse including their 'favourite shampoo' I laughed... If I don't have a favourite food or music.. I certainly don't have a favourite shampoo...
I told the MR 'if we are ever in one of those competions about your significant others 'favourites' that his answer should be:
She doesn't have any favourites.
(but then when I am on the spot, doing one of those scarey questionaires... I desperately try to come up with some favourites so people don't think I am weird, so what will the MR do then?? Besides look stupid for answering that his wife has no favourites.)
So in the hope of not wanting my valued things to mean nothing - I better get me some favourite things.
Any suggestions?
*Breaks into song * "........these are a few of my favourite things........."

My favourites are often mood orientated, I'm not a rock solid devotee to anything but my husband and kids. I've been trying to decide a colour on something particular for about 6 months and just can't make a decision. If I do lock it in my mind will change next time the wind blows. I like change and variety. Nothing wrong with that!

There are some areas where I have strong opinions and others where I really don't care. I think there is too much pressure to pick just one. But why? Can't we enjoy every aspect of life without prefering one over another. I think it is only a problem if you can never pick anything. Which flavour ice-cream should I have? Ummmm... As long as you have an opinion, it doesn't have to be fixed on any one thing and sealed with blood. Humans are varied individuals who are constantly changing. Why bind ourselves to one thing when we can be free to enjoy many?
Must take after your mother, because I am the same, no favourites, except I have a favourite child, but I'm not telling which one lol
I think it's great to love "girls in white dresses and blue satin sashes"... You're amazing Bobbie and you're my favorite you!
