Yes {Wo}man

Recently, it came to my attention that I like to say "no" to a lot of things. I've never really thought much about this because, well, I've never considered it an issue. I don't refuse things without thought or just to say no. I'm just a person who doesn't mind staying home on a Saturday night {really, I prefer it}, or not going to a party. I like my alone time. It was pointed out to me, however, that saying no to people and opportunities could be a part of what is causing some of the dissatisfaction with my current life situation. So, it seems I have been presented with a challenge to say yes to more things that are put in front of me. Now, I'm not saying I'm turning into Jim Carrey in Yes Man, but I think there could be some very real value in saying yes to more things in life.
Here's to saying "YES" more often than not.

  1. I think it makes sense, within reason. This movie went beyond reason! Right now i'm saying YES to not being sick, but i'm not sure if it's working :).

  2. Yes, but it was amusing.

    I hope you're not getting sick... I feel like I've been fighting something too.
