Someone wise once said, “Life’s short.”
And spending it well isn’t always about saying yes.
It’s sometimes having the conviction to say no.
No uncomfortable knickers.
No uncomfortable silence.
No phones at the dinner table.
No phones at the bedside table.
No clothes that cost the earth.
No shoes that hurt your feet.
No saving things for best.
No disappointing dinners.
No disappointing friends.
No comparing yourself to this girl.
No excuses.
No staying silent.
No holding back.
So if it doesn’t make you feel ten feet tall.
If it doesn’t take you somewhere extraordinary.
Say no.
After all, we only get one life.
Let’s spend it well.
