Dust if you must(zt)

LADIES!!!  Remember...a layer of dust protects the  Wood beneath it.  
 
 'A house   becomes a home   when  you can write 'I love you' on the furniture.'    
 
 I  used to spend at least 8 hours every  weekend making sure things were just perfect - 'in case someone  came over'   
 Finally I realized one day that no-one  came over; they were all out living life and having fun!   
NOW,  when people visit, I don't have to explain the  'condition' of my home    
They are  more interested in hearing about the things I've been doing while  I was away living life and having fun
If you haven't  figured this out yet, please heed this advice.   

Life  is short. Enjoy it!   
 Dust if you must .......   
but wouldn't it be better to  paint a picture or write a letter, bake cookies or a cake  and lick the spoon or plant a  seed, ponder the difference between  want and need?
Dust if you must,   but there's not much time . . . .  
with wine to drink, rivers to swim and mountains to climb  music to hear and books to read, friends  to cherish and life to lead.  

Dust if you  must,    
but the world's out there  with the sun in your eyes, the wind in your hair, a flutter of snow, a shower of  rain. This day will  not come around, again.   
 
 Dust if you must  ,  but bear in mind, old age will come and it's not kind. . .   

And when you go - and go  you must - you, yourself will make more dust!
