THIS IS AN EVERYDAY RESOLUTION!
Better Get To Livin'
Words by Dolly Parton
People always comin' up to me and askin'
"Ernie*, what's your secret?
With all you do, your attitude
Just seems to be so good
How do you keep it?"
Well, I'm not the Dali Lama, but I'll try
To offer up a few words of advice
Chorus:
You better get to livin', givin'
Don't forget to throw in a little forgivin'
And lovin' on the way
You better get to knowin', showin'
A little bit more concerned about where you're goin'
Just a word unto the wise
You better get to livin'.
A girlfriend came to my house
Started cryin' on my shoulder Sunday evening
She was spinnin' such a sad tale
I could not believe the yarn that she was weavin'
So negative the words she had to say
I said if I had a violin I'd play
I said you'd better get to livin', givin'
Be willin' and forgivin'
Cause all healing has to start with you
You better stop whining, pining,
Get your dreams in line
And then just shine, design, refine
Until they come true
And you better get to livin'
Your life's a wreck, your house's a mess
And your wardrobe way outdated
All your plans just keep on falling through
Overweight and underpaid, underappreciated
I'm no guru, but I'll tell you
This I know is true
You better get to livin', givin'
A little more thought about bein'
A little more willin' to make a better way
Don't sweat the small stuff
Keep your chin up
Just hang tough
And if it gets too rough
Fall on your knees and pray
And do that everyday
Then you'll get to livin'
The day we're born we start to die
Don't waste one minute of this life
Get to livin'
Share your dreams and share your laughter
Make some points for the Great Hereafter
Better start carin'
Better start sharin'
Better start tryin'
Better start smili'
And you better get to livin'

You've come this far, you'll make it the rest of the way and be a bigger person in the end. I know that you can appreciate that part, and I know that it's awfully hard from where you are now. Enjoy the fact that right now, what goes wrong is apt to be 99% the fault of someone else! When you've got the reins in hand once more, the bulk of the burden will be right back on YOU!
Sometimes we have to play games with ourself to get us over those especially difficult humps in life. The trick is knowing when it's no longer needed and disposing of the notion as the temporary fix that it was.
You are loved! Just be happy with today, and anticipate tomorrow with wonder.

Thanks for the card, but it was not necessary. I hope that you can use most of what I sent, but if not, recycle or pitch what you cannot. The strange metal gizmo hangs from the toilet tank to hold tissue rolls. It will not fit in the spaces here at home, but I thought you might wish to avoid damaging a wall in your new home. The plastic on it wasn't durable and I was afraid it would not make the trip, so took the original wrapper off. If you need sheets, let me know. I have a set of queen size that came with a holiday bedding set that's still in the wrapper. It has pinecones on it, so will work as an extra set for any time of the year. I didn't know what your bedding setup was, or would have sent them. Be sure to let one of us know any other needs that come up. If we have things that will tide y'all over, rather than having to replace all at one time, then let us know!

Ernie, it will probably take some time before the trauma is less painful. Just try to be gentle with yourself, and don't push too hard to feel "normal." {{Ernie}}

It was good to hear that you will soon be in your house, and I'm so happy for you and your family. Keep the faith, and things will be good for you.
Take good care of yourself, and know there are a lot of folks praying for you! HUGS!!!
