But Nothing
I'm always (believe it or not) trying to make myself better. I guess I mean better inside, since the physical issues fall outside my motivation these days. Here's the thing, I want to eliminate the unnecessary use of the word "but" from my conversation. What gets me thinking this? Example: "I love you, but you're a klutz," can just as easily and definitely more accurately be changed to, "I love you, and you're a klutz." It's just... better. Nicer, sure. Isn't it true?
It feels warmer. And it doesn't sound as bitchy and accusing. It's inclusive. It's saying, "You are not alone in this world. We are together."
So, I'm trying.
