“We will not build a peaceful world by following a negative path. It is not enough to say, ‘We must not wage war.’ It is necessary to love peace and sacrifice for it. We must concentrate not merely on the negative expulsion of war, but on the positive affirmation of peace. We must see that peace represents a sweeter music, a cosmic melody that is far superior to the discords of war.” ~ Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Yes #35 – Yes I will take the time check up on my kids’ Instagram accounts in my spare time. I try not to be too controlling when it comes to their content, but kids don’t have the big picture view of the trouble they could get into if an adult doesn’t supervise activities like these.

Yes #36 – Yes I will let the dog stop what seems like 500 times to sniff every bush and tree even though I’d rather have a fast-paced walk. Patience, I tell myself. Patience.

Yes #37 – Yes I will enjoy a morning to shopping with my daughter, and even though we don’t find anything, just spending the time together lifts our spirits.
