A friend told me today that I don’t have one mean streak in me.
I was very flattered. Because I don’t want to be mean.
But in fairness to Husband, Children, Siblings , friends and coworkers I should come clean. Upfront. Honest.
I have a snarky streak.
I have a cranky streak.
I have a moody streak.
I have “Lord please don’t let her start lecturing” streak.
I have a cussing streak.
Do these streaks count as a mean streak?
I hope not.
But now I have to pay attention to all of these streaks I do have. Because if they come across as mean, it doesn’t really matter what they are. It’s hurtful.
I don’t want to be hurtful.
How does one de-snarky themselves?
Oh the joys of self awareness.
