In the hustle and bustle of this joyous season upon us, I encourage you to recite the following words:
"If that's the worst thing that happens to me today, then I will be ok"
Here are appropriate times to interject such a statement:
1) An apologetic person in SBUX accidently bumps into you......say it!
2) A friend or co-worker that suddenly realizes they have been rambling incessently for 10 minutes and suddenly says "I'm sorry, I didn't ask about you"......say it!
3) A retail employee on the phone or in person apologizes for not being able to find THAT toy or your size.......say it!
The point being, it can be appropriately placed in any situation and you will be truly amazed at the look on the receiver's face and the gleam you place in their eye. In these troubling times we are in, it truly makes people stop and think........it's not so bad if you don't get THAT toy or the right coffee or get to tell someone how your day has been if they needed you to listen today instead.
Here's hoping the worst thing that happens to you today is that the twist is forgotten on your Starbucks Peppermint Mocha Twist :) Trust me.......not the end of the world :)

Signing off!
