Delights

Things I find delightful and that offer a great return on investment:



Mesa, my sweet 18 year old kitty companion;
Colorful flowers in the garden,
Sweet, chicket-like yellow and pink lantana,  purply persian shield; silly and delightful pansies,
red and purple angels earrings, soft, fluffy caramel minty artemesia,  towering fuschia butterfly bush,
butterflies, bees, and humming birds,

In person, face to face time shared with dear friends,

Infinite views of mountains and oceans,
Swimming in the warm, blue water of Isla Mujeres.
Freedom.

Day 1

I chose the term Off-Rack as it seems fitting.
How do we know when something/someone fits.
When will something/someone come "off the rack" with us.
When is something/someone "off rack" worthy?

Especially as far as dating goes, the acronym RACK is a good thing to fall back on.
Reciprocity, Availability, Consistency, Kindness.
If a person doesn't have these qualities during all stages of dating, then they are not worthy of your time or emotional investment.
You can keep them "on the rack," and keep seeking a better fit.

Would you buy a pair of shoes or jeans that didn't fit?
How uncomfortable that sounds if you did.
You'd likely continue to try on other pairs until you found more fitting ones.
Well, same idea.
You deserve something that fits and the words in RACK are all essential elements for a relationship, whether its a friendship or dating relationship.
You don't need to settle.
Hold out for a good fit.
Nothing beats a comfy pair of jeans, or good shoes, or, recalling Goldilocks and the 3 bears, a "just right" bowl of porridge.
