"A Habit I Wish I Didn't Have"
Today's challenge is a tough one for me....I wish I could ask someone else what habit I have that I shouldn't...but I don't think I want to hear that because it very well might be something I do not want to hear!!! So, hm-m-m-m-m.. well, one habit I have that I am sure all I know would agree to is this:
When I am telling a story or about an incident or something that I want to share, I tend to repeat myself. And I sometimes kind of get mixed up so I have to start all over again....or someone else (usually my husband) is telling a story/incident and I feel that I can tell it better!!!! I feel that the story needs much more embellishment...thus I take over on telling!
Okay...my family members that are reading this...just because I admit to this habit does not mean I am going to change!!! You know my versions are funnier!!!!!
Another habit I have which I am working on correcting....once in a while...is to not always feel I have to volunteer for everything that comes along....whether at club meetings, church or what ever! And there again, that compulsion comes from thinking egotistically if I want it done right, I have to do it myself!!! So not true!!! Things get done without me...just maybe not the same way I would do it....there lies the rub!!!
I guess there are many habits I have that I wish I didn't have, but I think that is enough to reveal to the world at large!!
So THAT's where I get my story-telling embellishment from....
ReplyDeleteI have that same habit of getting lost in my own story and/or wanting to tell it better than the person telling the story. It is a challenge to not want to say anything.
