Our agent called this morning and the homeowner did not accept our offer, but did make a counteroffer. We've submitted a new offer and are waiting for a response.
While we wait I'll share a brief story...
I came across a great quote late last night (or possibly early this morning, I'm not sure) that I'd like to make note of...
"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." ~ Dr. Seuss
I've added this quote to my mental mantra collection. I used to really care about what others thought of me, I mean really care. To the point that I was trying to do anything and everything just to get the "right" people to like me and I was completely miserable for it. No matter what I did, those right people still wouldn't let me in. The harder I tried, the worse my life was because I was not doing what made me happy. The choices I made in my attempts to fit in led me to make many wrong turns in my life and I got so lost.
Years later, after a lot of hurting and self-loathing I gradually stopped caring about what others thought. It wasn't due to apathy, but because I'd finally met people who mattered. And that makes all the difference.
