THINGS ABOUT LIFE I LEARNED FROM A JIGSAW PUZZLE
Try these to see if they make anything easier. If not, at least I got you to read my blog...lol
1. Don't force a fit. If something is meant to be, it will
come together naturally.
2. When things aren't going so well, take a break. Every-
thing will look different when you return.
3. Be sure to look at the big picture. Getting hung up on
the little pieces only leads to frustration.
4. Perseverance pays off. Every important puzzle went
together bit by bit, piece by piece.
5. When one spot stops working, move to another. But be sure
to come back later (see #4).
6. The creator of the puzzle gave you the picture as a
guidebook.
7. Variety is the spice of life. It's the different colors
and patterns that make the puzzle interesting.
8. Working together with friends and family makes any task
fun.
9. Establish the border first. Boundaries give a sense of
security and order.
10. Don't be afraid to try different combinations. Some
matches are surprising.
11. Take time often to celebrate your successes (even
little ones).
12. Anything worth doing takes time and effort. A great
puzzle can't be rushed.

Rico, are you a puzzler too? I love jigsaw puzzles, and I loved this posting! Though there should be a rule about never throwing pieces in anger, because you will never find them again. It's like the rug eats them to teach you a lesson.
