My mom gives pretty good advice. Most good moms do, and I was lucky enough to get the best. As I am now (gulp) a “real adult” at 40 years old, I am trying to take her advice on how to change people. You see, you can’t change people. You can only change how you deal with people. Let that sink in for a minute. Does someone close to you drive you nuts? Do they not make the bed or do the dishes the way you think they should? Or what if they push your buttons to make you cry, or get mad. Are you going let them have that power? She asks me that a lot. I am working on it.
