There's this guy I know, Walt, who likes to walk around his medical care complex every morning. He's kind of a hunk, but getting a little older. Today, one of the caregivers, very attentive, noticed Walt was out of breath, and so she checked his oxygen saturation with this cute little device they stick on his finger. She freaked when she noticed the percentage was 85. Not great oxygen sats, normally. Labels: Breathless, elderly, listening

Definitely have spoken before my brain was in gear! That is the thing about spoken words. We can't take them back once they are heard. No matter how much we apologize for them, they hang in the air. Besides listening, we should also be ready to apologize or forgive, whatever fits the circumstance. :-)
Thanks, Sandie. I agree. I've had to make a fool of myself--and apologize--quite a few times before I learned to keep my mouth shut until I thought about things for a while. You show great wisdom.
Oh how I know that!! I won't tell you how, but I'll never forget it.

Okay, Ane, do I have to beat it out of you?
I'm sorry if I said anything wrong :(
Jel? You didn't say anything at all. :) speak up!
Cheryl has been sick today, poor girl.
LOL!! JEL, you're hilarious. I love your sense of humor.
Colleen's right, I'm fighting a virus today, so Ane, don't take me at my word when I threaten to beat anything out of you. I couldn't beat a mosquito today. But wait until tomorrow...
Colleen,
I'm not custom to public speaking.
Unfortunately my mouth usually engages before my mind has totally thought the situation through. I've been listening to Joyce Meyer speaking about the power of our words and how we really need to pay attention to what we say before we say it. I have a lot of work to do. :)
Smiles,

So do I, Cindy. I think most of us do. I'm really struggling with that one right now.
are ya feeling any better Cheryl?
my mouth does get me in hot water some time, :(
jel, I'm feeling much better today, thank you. I'm still struggling with my mouth getting ahead of my head. But since we're all human, we tend to forgive one another. Don't we?
I sure hope so! :)
