Daily Prompt: Clichés become clichés for a reason. Tell us about the last time a bird in the hand was worth two in the bush for you.
♥ ♥ ♥
I’m not a risk-taker, so what I have is worth so much more than what I might have. I apply this logic to the dollar in my pocket versus buying a lottery ticket!
I am generally not a risk taker either although I have been known to buy the odd lottery ticket
*hugs*
My Phil buys them. No “luck” yet…
As long as I have what I need I’m happy!
Same here Rose
*hugs*
A while back we inherited some gold and silver coins, not a fortune by any means, just some.
But this got me on a bit of a buying kick and I ended up purchasing additional gold and silver. I’m happy enough I have it, but I probably should have just stuck with what I already had.
But then on the hand your extra gold and silver is really an added investment though, Phil
*hugs*
Well I’m hoping so.
Thanks for the hug.
My pleasure Phil.
I’m happy with what I’ve got and what will be will be… and what the world is prepared to share I will take… what is in my hand I earned,,, but while we talk of birds.. I love to find two in the bush…

I hate cliches – - – like the plague.
LOL, most people do
*hugs*
Beautiful capture! Tell us more about the photo! *hugs*
Its a gorgeous photo, not mine though, the photo credit is at the end of the post
*hugs*
Well then, good choice of photo:) I like what you said about having what you need and not going out on a limb for more. Gratefulness is such a good thing.
That is a great philosophy. Cliches are there to help us put a label that everybody understands on any situation in life. That’s the way it goes. A rolling stone gathers no moss, so I am ending this before I wear out my welcome.
Wear out your welcome? Never
*hugs*

I am glad you can be happy with what you have. Just don’t do it out of a position of fear.
After my stroke, I learned to take more chances; it’s one of the biggest reasons I am published now.
Great post and thoughts.
Scott
Good point, Scott. Great that you are published now.
*hugs*
I’m frequently a risk taker.
But it’s nice to hae stability too.
Stability is nice El, I used to take a few chances too at times. I seem to have mellowed lately though.
*hugs*
As much as I hate cliches, sometimes I just can’t help but use them because nothing else fits! Maybe it’s possible for us to create a new cliche? They all start somewhere right?
They do, you’re quite right Rose.
*hugs*
great wisdom there! although I will go out on a limb and jump, at times…lol…hopefully there’s a river below!
Thanks Shards, sometimes we do ha e to take chances though.
*hugs*

Contentment rules!
*hugs*
I am a risk taker but also happy with what I have, but also feel what is really important, nobody can take away from me.
I would be lying if I didnt admit to a few impulsive moments when I was younger. Like youself I am happy with what I have now.
*hugs*
