You know how there are some words that make you cringe? We all know that the word PREGGO in reference to being pregnant, absolutely drives me insane. I twitch all sorts of ways inside when I hear that word. Another word is "sure".
"Would you be able to watch my kids today?
-"sure".
"Would you be willing to help me out with something?"
-"sure".
"Would you like a massage?"
-"sure".
"Would you like a million bucks"
-"sure".
SEE where I am going with this!? Every single time somebody says that to me in a text/email I read it like this "sure...I don't really want to but I will..." Or "sure...if I have to..". I also picture a little eye rollin goin' on.
Hows bout we try adding a little more LIFE to our words?
"Yes, I can do that." "I'd be happy to!" "I'd LOVE a million bucks, thanks!" :-)
OK. I feel so much better getting that out there into the world.
Carry on my friends, carry on.
This seriously made me laugh out loud! And you know, I agree with you on the word sure.
