Note to Myself No. 20





Sometimes I have a little trouble
letting myself
be silly.

It's not that I don't want to,
you understand,
it's that I'm concerned about
looking silly.
Undignified.
Ridiculous, even.

Will I ever get over that?
(Only in the right circumstances,
with enough encouragement.)

Do you have trouble being silly
and cutting loose?

My husband is more "dignified" and occasionally gets a little embarassed by my silliness. But every once in a while, he joins in. That makes me thrilled !
Get sill whenever the urge takes you, Meri ! Life is too short to worry about being embarassed !
