Monday on the Menu Board

I just needed the reminder this week. Thought you might, too.

Monday on the Menu Board

A quote by Joseph Campbell, the longest the menu board has seen thus far and clear proof I'm a girl in need of more E's and I's.

[I feel like there should be some sort of hidden meaning in that.]

Because it is. My favorite line from "The English Patient" by Michael Ondaatje. (Book version, of course.) See the whole quote here.

Monday on the Menu Board

Like a majority of women I know (especially the Southern ones), I grew up learning how to be a people pleaser. And frankly, that means that a lot of my adult life has been an exercise in learning how to say "no" in a healthier, more self-aware way.

With that under my belt, though, lately, I've actually been embracing more ways to say a healthy "yes" -- and good grief, it is just as powerful as "no," and most of the time, it is WAY more fun.

Here's hoping you inject a little y-e-s into the week.
