      The Frog's Blog

Hi friends. This blog is a labor of love and I want to continue writing every day for a long time to come. But I need a little help. The fees to maintain this website are getting costly for a little frog. If you enjoy reading my blogs, will you please donate a dollar or two, or whatever you can, to help me keep this site (and blog) up and running? I'm on PayPal at irwinquagmirewart@gmail.com. Thank you!

Treating myself with kindness

TFIF...Thank Frog It's Friday! I've had a very busy and stressful week and I am so happy that the weekend is just around the corner. After having a difficult few days, I like to indulge myself with a few simple luxuries...an extra glass of swamp juice and, perhaps, a second portion of big,fat flies. It's good to treat ourselves with kindness. We are, after all, VIF's...very important frogs. I believe that you humans need to be kind to yourself, too. It's always so much easier, it seems, to take care of others and to put ourselves on the back burne, but that it's necessarily a good thing. It's a healthy habit to treat ourselves well, and one that's well worth cultivating. That doesn't mean spending loads of money on things you can't really afford...keeping up with the Jones, so-to-speak. No, it'more about taking time every day to appreciate life; not to only unwind, but to recharge our inner batteries. Whether it's watching a favorite film, reading an inspiring passage from a loved book, or listening to your favorite music while soaking in a relaxing bath. And did I mention chocolate? That, too, can be a luxurious treat at the end of a busy day. These are just a few ways that you can show yourself that you care...that you do matter. If we don't take good care of ourselves, then we can't take good care of the ones we love. How will you treat yourself to a few moments of luxury this weekend? Whatever you choose, take time and enjoy the experience. Now it's time for me to go catch those fat flies...yum! See you back here on Monday!
