I read an inspirational poster recently. I want to say it was on Yes and Yes but I forgot to put on my bra this morning so my memory is not entirely reliable, but anyway the poster said -

‘You are the average of the five people that you spend the most time with.’

I thought it was such a beautiful way to acknowledge the contribution that your friends and family make to you as a person.

I made a list of the five people that I spend the most time with and the qualities that I have absorbed from them.

My man.

Ambition, determination and an adopted wheat intolerance.

My housemate.

Energy and optimism.

My bestie.

Patience, kindness and acceptance.

My man’s brother.

Scathing wit and coffee addiction.

My man’s bestie.

Sensitivity, the art of reflection and a renewed faith in the existence of stylish men.

I know that most readers at Smaggle don’t know these people but it doesn’t matter. What’s important is for you to take the time to list your five people in the comments section and share the qualities that they have that have rubbed off on you. Remember, these aren’t your favourite people but the people you spend the most time with.

Give it a go, it will make you feel all warm and gooey inside!

Love,

Carly
