I see something modeled. I think I’d like to remodel myself to be like that.

Why?

‘Why are you, lady, always asking why and trying to make me ask ‘why’?’

My Uncle Babe, now gone to heaven, told me he was always trying to get people to think. Think about what? Think on their own. Think things through. Wonder about stuff. How and why and who said it and why should I do things this way. Could there be a better way? What rule says I’m not allowed to think or speak what I’d like? I think I follow my uncle’s same way. I like to think and see through things and help other people to do the same. It’s healthy to have your own mind…to use it well to think, create, make, suggest, start…just be at peace with your own way of life.

I’m not talking about purposely causing trouble or doing wrong things, but we humans can get stuck doing the same ‘ole, same ‘ole pretty easily and become bogged down.

So begin today. Think about your models and any current remodeling you’re contemplating in your life. Why have you chosen that model to remodel after? Is that what you really want or want to become? Is it because someone else thinks you need to be that, or you think you need to be that to be accepted by them? These are tough but necessary questions to ponder.

We don’t want to be a mere cookie cutter version envisioned by somebody else. Become who you are. Set your own standard. Stand out as a model of you!

Remember, are you remodeling yourself to your design, or are you allowing others to remodel you to their pattern?
