Be Nice – Ch#52 (Just one thing)
Give thanks
If you’re lucky,
Don’t believe your own hype.
Be serious, not solemn, and …
Be nice.
(Cinquain)

Chapter 52 – Summary from the Wisdom of Olivia Coleman
The post has been inspired by If I Could Tell You Just One Thing by Richard Reed.
Over the 62 days, in Dec and Jan, my challenge is to share the learning from each of the 62 chapters; hopefully in a poem, but who knows? Follow my progress with the #JustOneThing Tag
Happy to explore what you make of the post in the comments below? 🙂
Beautifully expressed. 🙂

Be nice: short, simple and doable. How memorable it’d be if everyone tried this for a day.
Thanks for this lovely reminder. Precious words.

Be nice* IS WHAT I MEANT. BUT I GUESS YOU GOT IT.
Also, wasn’t sure my comment reached you as it wasn’t easy sailing on my phone. So, all in all, pleased it arrived. Lovely words. Thanks for sharing 💕
