A Sippy Cup

Drink in life from a sippy cup,
take it all in but stop at enough.
Quench the mind's thirst but
don't over stuff.
Distinguish from what's needed
from what's just fluff.

Well said, Nancy! I think at times I take in too much info and wonder why I get so confused! Ha! Blessings, Kim M

I am the same way Kim. Getting up to early some days and I am way over stimulated with my "to do lists". Thanks for visiting me. It's always a pleasure to hear from you. Nancy
