What are the chances I snore, too??
Street Smarts
Would you say that you have street smarts??
I think I have more now than I did when I was 20, and yet probably not enough. I’ve read the articles that have been published for women about things they should consider when they are walking or traveling alone, and try to take them to heart. I suspect that we naturally become more wary as we grow older. I think younger women have simply not lived long enough to sense that they are mortal.
Pollyanna
In 1913, Eleanor H. Porter wrote the novel “Pollyanna.” The main character’s name evokes the image of a person who is cheery and positive, who looks for the best in people or her surroundings. Walt Disney brought the story to the movie screen in 1960, with Haley Mills as Pollyanna.
In my lifetime, the term “pollyanna” has come to imply someone who is naive and unrealistic, or someone who is a “goody two-shoes.” But, I think that we have lost touch with that simple and gentle part of our lives. Perhaps we need to take a step back and find the good that runs throughout each day.
