@_michellelynn: Sometimes the best life advice didn’t come from books… it came from sitting in the kitchen listening to Mama/Grandma talk. Things like: “Everybody that smile in your face ain’t your friend.” “Respect will take you places money can’t.” I didn’t understand half of what she was saying back then… but the older I get, the more I realize Mama/Grandma knew exactly what she was talking about.
