Some like it hot and some like it cold!
We’re different—each of us.
I like hot
- coffee,
- baths,
- showers, and
- fresh cookies.
I like cold
- ice (duh),
- water (icy),
- candy bars (frozen actually), and
- Swiss Cake Rolls (frozen, too).
Today, I’m feeling decisive. I’m happier when I’m decisive. You’ll feel happier, too, if you are making decisions for yourself. You’ll feel more significant when you're the driver behind your actions.
You don't have to follow the crowd where you don’t want to travel. And if you would like something your way, say so. Don’t throw a fit, just calmly say how it is. Like this...
“I don’t like ice cream, much.”
“That’s un-American.”
“I like apple pie!”
“Okay, that’s good, but I don’t understand the ice cream thing.”
It's taken me a lot of years to arrive at this place, where I matter. You can do it, too. Be your own driver. Say what you need. You'll thank me for it later.
Happy Monday!

Still waiting to drive...
But give me sunshine - and I'm happy!! Cheers Hilary
And I am also not a fan of the term 'UnAustralian'. We are a big and varied country, with room for lots of difference.
I matter? A work in progress. Still.
Decisive is good. I get things done more quickly when I'm decisive.
