Do you ever feel like pigeon?

I try to be nice to everyone.  I mean everyone.  I met a guy today in the bread store.  The cashier asked, "How's your day?"

He answered, "Fine, so far."

I chimed in and told him to run home fast, don't check the mail, and go to bed.

He bust out laughing.  My daughter asked me if I knew the man, and I told her no, but enjoy making people smile.

Now, I'm no saint as many here can attest, but sometimes, people who I am closest to, walk all over me.  I can't go into who, I just wanted to whine.  Do you ever feel that way?

My brother always says that I let everyone walk all over me. My flaw is I take out my frustration on my parents and brother because I know they love me unconditionally. I don't do it often but they are the people I explode on when it does occur. Yet, if I do let someone know that I'm angry with them it is because they have offended my parents or my brother.

Oh my goodness!! What a strange video. I've never seen anything like that. For a minute I thought the pigeon was going to get back out, it was fighting so hard for it's life.

Back in the day when I was social, I loved making strangers smile and sparking little lighthearted conversations while out running errands. It's such a joy. :)

My problem is I need a shirt that says "Don't even ask, the answer is NO." I'm terrible about not saying no.

Poor pigeon!

We all have our whiney days. Of course when I get one I think of it as bearing up under and unjust world but it still comes our whiney.

Hang in there.

I have felt like the pigeon since november, unfortunately.
