Hello all! : )
Today at Lesley Living Life, it’s unofficially picture day!
And just so I’m not neglecting food, here’s some grapes from my mom’s garden that are de-lish!
I asked this on Twitter earlier today but for you who aren’t on Twitter …
Question:
What’s the difference between being nice/putting others first/being humble verses being a people pleaser & when does it become a negative thing?
Hope your week is off to a great start!

yay pictures day more often please :) i love seeing yo' face!
ReplyDeleteWhen your good deeds start to effect you,in a negative way, that's when it becomes negative! For instance, if you are going out of your way to be a pleaser, but you are putting yourself out way too often.
ReplyDeleteI LOVED picture day, by the way. Those were some great pictures of the two of you! I love "candid" photos.
Love this collage of pics today. Just makes me smile to end my day! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great question. I think the difference lies in genuinity. When you are nice to others and truly genuine about it, then you don't really need to worry about being a people pleaser. People will automatically see that you are a kind person with a good soul and love you for it! :)
PS- I think you fall into the category of being genuinily kind and humble and I of course love you for that! :)
awwwwwwww the pups! You and Erik are seriously SO freaking cute.
ReplyDeleteLove the pics Lesley. those are some nice grapes.
ReplyDeleteLOVE those pups :) and you two make quite the couple! wow, your parents are quite the gardeners! they brought you some amazing loot!
ReplyDeletethat's a thought-provoking question... i think it can become negative when you put others before yourself. it's something i do all too easily :/
Great photos! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteLove all of the photos! I think being nice is being polite and being a pushover is helping people who don't actually need your help
ReplyDeleteAwww, look at that big teddy bear of a doggy. :)
ReplyDeleteYour dog is precious, just want to hug him!! That is an awesome question...When you start thinking you are better than others because you are helping them, it can be a problem. You could very easily be on the other side.
ReplyDeletegreat pictures, your dogs are soooo cute!!
ReplyDeletethat should say "great"...spelling clearly not my strong point tonight!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute dog! And you guys make a GRWAT couple :D
ReplyDeleteI think it becomes a negative thing when you are either compromising your own principles/morals, or when are you are not being true to your own self/beliefs. Sometimes compromise is necessary or telling a little white lie, but if anyone is getting cheated, it's not helpful.
Awww I love your dog! :) And you and your man are adorable!
ReplyDeleteI love the last picture of you and the dog. His expression is adorable!
