Do Something DIFFERENT

[Laurie]

Dear-dear JoJo,

And you're just plain sweet!

Now, you know in my book that neutral is more on the positive than the negative side, right? BECAUSE - you took a risk that you've not taken before and it went OK! That is "good".

Also, you've learned something you didn't fully think about before. That is, Sundays are really busy for him. You now have a bit more information about his life - that is "good".

He said you were looking good. One more "good".
He waved with a BIG smile. Let's make that two "goods".


JoJo, what is really wonderful is you've gained confidence by your risk taking. That says to me quite a few things:

1. You are feeling stronger about yourself to even try the risk taking.
2. You are wise and objective when thinking through what type of risk you could take that would tend not to hurt the R.
3. And, you've gained a newer sense of confidence because you made this attempt!


You mirrored his behavior by stopping by. You let him set the boundaries and then you just reciprocated. I know you will be very, very careful about balancing your risk-taking. But, what a very different response you got this time than you've had before and could have gotten. Ok, one more - because you deserve it:


Goods, grins and hugs,
Laurie
