Why do we do this to ourselves? A bazillion people can pay us a compliment and one insignificant boor can make an insensitive jab and what will our psyche ruminate over all day long? You betcha.
So-for this week, I'm going to suggest that everyone inflate their egos and tell themselves that they are the best thing since sliced bread. One hundred percent whole wheat sliced bread...let's go with the good carbs, shall we?
And what if you really do do something stupid? Well...then cut yourself some slack. Tell yourself that nobody's perfect but hell, you're as close as they come.
Happy Monday!
Whew! I needed that reminder.
;-)

Hey! I am the best thing since Fire. Or Wheels?
Especially when my books are out there at the Bangalore Book Festival (Read about it here: http://navy-blue-jeans.blogspot.com/2009/11/bbf-and-stall-of-pothidotcom.html) and I am biting my nails here hoping they sell.
Thanks, Sandra. And you are so right.

What a GREAT idea! We all need to remind ourselves that we have a lot to offer. =)

Thanks for the reminder. And also for the ones dealing with Susan's house and its cleanliness - or lack thereof. My house is in exactly the same situation right now, worse if possible, and it was so great to see it reflected in Susan's!
