Penny McHenry, founder American Hydrangea Society, had 2 newspaper clippings on her bathroom mirror.
Below, is one.
The 2nd said, "It is more important to be kind than to be right."
.
She was in her 70's when they were taped to her mirror.
.
Active, Penny was forever getting into 'pickles'. At least once a year she forgot these quotes, thoroughly.
.
Her charm lay in immediate repentance & contrition. I drove Penny a lot of places thru the years & it was always a thrill when she would begin, "Perhaps I shouldn't have told....."

Garden & Be Well, XO Tara
