Daily Comment
I get embarrassed at Kellish Hills Farm - I am treated like a celebrity when I go there - but everybody's so nice and sincere.

They're not wrong about me, they are just exaggerating.

I don't see myself the way they do, and I know me better.

On the other hand, their flattery doesn't do me any harm, and doesn't seem to be accompanied by envy - they just think I'm a bigger deal than I am. So, they treat me very well. It is their generalized praise (words like 'best' and 'wonderful' thrown around) that discounts the validity of the whole thing for me.

It does me no harm, and I say, without bragging, that, in some ways I am the best and I am wonderful - but just like everybody else, I am the best and most wonderful me - but despite it not making me different from anybody else, I don't think about it, or appreciate it.

Because people's opinions of me, good or bad (and I am not held in such esteem by everyone, for certain) is none of my business, and says nothing about how I conduct my life.

I wake up grateful every day - for another day. What other people think about the same day doesn't affect how I do.


Note: I'm spending the weekend in Vermont - next post will be Monday's.
