| After trying all those well-meaning suggestions that my mother and grandmother heaped on me day after day, I found out for myself that all the spit and polish in the world doesn't endear you to your pals or get you a romantic interest. Being comfortable with yourself draws far more relationships than trying to be someone you're not. Live a little, kick up your heels, get stupid occasionally and if you trip and folks are watching, take a little bow. |
