Measuring up

This is an OLD folding measuring stick that I brought back from the farm. I remember this being in the tool box since 'forever'. It has started me thinking about 'measuring up'. How are each one of us measuring up to our own values? What kind of measuring tool do we use? Is it an old and tested measuring tool or a new one that works for this new world? I keep this old one on my shelf just to remind me of the way measuring was calculated on the farm. Have I changed?? I hope so but some of those old ways are still good to measure yourself by. Just a few things to think about today as you measure your life.
