Treat Yourself Kindly


Make each day even better than the one before Promise yourself a dinner at your favourite restaurant Give yourself a gift of that sweater you had your eye on Little things that help make life exciting and interesting It's not selfish to treat yourself every once in a while It makes for a happier existence You'll find yourself humming happy tunes and smiling a lot So what if people around you think you've lost it! Keep 'em guessing and even add to the rumours By occasionally doing outrageous things Like sit-ups in the middle of the local mall And when security escorts you out to your car Keep singing those happy tunes and waving at everyone This advice is likely not good for all!

Nothing wrong with treating yourself once I'm a while. I might skip the mall bit lol. Tom

Yes maybe that's a bit extreme lol but at my younger years might have given it a go...
