Sheer Lipstick For Caffe? Unheard Of!!


Hello my Darling... It’s always a pleasure when you stop by!  Come on in and let me fill your cup...
Today I’ve got a completely different brew than what you are used to.  ‘Now what are you filling my cup up with this time Caffe?’  Well Lovey, my lipstick choice is a bit more on the sheer side lately, not quite as bold as I normally like to put on my pretty little pucker.  I’m feeling a bit... introspective.  
The other day I got a message through a new Facebook friend that took my breath away.  It wasn’t an old flame, it wasn’t a new flame, and it wasn’t another someone professing his undying love for me.  It was from someone I barely knew that happened to be on the flight I was working on... yes, gorgeous me was once a flight attendant and I, of course, attracted many!
Jerry had been searching for moi to thank me for the kind words of encouragement that I had given him 17 years ago when he was about to see his Grandfather for the very last time in the hospital.  With sadness in his heart, he knew that with his family, they would be making a decision wether to pull the plug, or not.
Now Darling, there’s no need for any further details.  I just wanted to remind you, that the words and actions that we say or do on a daily basis, means something to someone.  I was ever so fortunate to be reminded of this by my new, Dear Friend, Jerry.
My Darling Friend, YOU are dear to me, and I just want to let you know that.  Your comments always put a smile on my face and I walk away with a much lighter step and I hope that when you come to visit, I put a smile on your pretty face as well.

My cup is empty and I’m now going to hug my children and tell them how much I love them.  When the Hubby gets home from work, I’ll do the same for him and thank him for working so hard today.  
When all is said and done, I know that my words and my actions will stay in their hearts forever... So I'd better make it count!  Ta Ta my Sweet, until we meet again!  xoxo

    It's funny how we forget how much we can influence each other's lives with just a few simple words.

    Very good reminder not to get caught up in daily activities and forgeting the important people in our lives :)

    So well said - thank you for your post! Likewise, harsh, unkind remarks can linger with people as well, even when the speaker has long forgotten their rudeness. It is good to remember to be kind.

    Now sweetie that is the second time today I have read something about encouragement and what our simple words can mean to someone else. Thank you for driving this message home as sometimes I think the crown acts as a deflector and I lose those important idea.
    To encourage someone else costs us so little but can mean the world to them

    Dunking my teabag for you love

    Manners always.... also from he blog hop :0)

    Isn't it lovely to be reminded of how much love you've shared in your life. I use to be a lifeguard/swim coach and 20 years later a mother told me that I was the #1 positive influence on her son.

    Amazing story, and yes, very wise words! You're fabulous! You always make my day with your humor and kindness. I suppose I'll try to be sweeter to my husband today. :)
