Buyer Beware

Buyer Beware

We should all carry a "buyer beware" sign
to flash each time someone starts crossing the line...
spreading false info and any juicy tidbit,
not keeping in mind the damage a bit...
or how they would feel if the tables would turn,
and they were the subject of the most recent burn.
That junk is just trash
and should be held on the tongue,
thrown into the garbage 
before a single word is begun.
I'm not buying the stretches, farfetches,
or complete lies that are told,
don't sell me the nonsense,
I'm wiser, getting old...
Focusing on positives & people who care;
find another outlet, this buyer's aware!

Hello Jacki...

My daughter's hair was quite long and she had it cut...

After I told her she could have her hair in any style she'd always be beautiful to me...

She said even I striped it rainbow?

I said yes even rainbow...

We both laughed, then...

First thing I asked her was what did they do with your hair...

She said that they saved it for her so she could donate it to Locks For Love...

I didn't expect that answer...

I expected her to say something like what did you think they would do with it?

Spread it pretty on a plate and send it to my Mommy...

I don't know where she gets things like that...

:)

Great write! 

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs...
