More musings. I'll try to keep it short

My birthday was wonderful!!

I was just reflecting today on more stuff. Little things I’ve learned in life. Some of those things are:

I don’t always have to get the last word in to win an argument. Very often I can win by letting the opposition just ramble on.

I think the least impressive people are the ones that try too hard to impress me. Not saying they are bad people. But it just seems like they need me too much. It would be flattering if it wasn’t so boring.

U still can’t hug your enough.

Benjamin Disraeli (British statesman of the 19th century) was right. “Never complain and never explain”

I think one of the best ways to get people to like you, is to let them know they aren’t obligated to.

I also think one of the best ways to get people to like you is to start liking them first.

The last couple statements put me in mind of people who try to desperately hard to convince you that they are correct about some viewpoint, argument, or position. If they try too hard and too much, u begin to realize they are needy, and it’s almost impossible to agree with them. And even when you do, you are reluctant to take their side.

Once an argument has gone silent for 15 minutes, it’s ancient history and should be dropped.

I’ve also learned that every time I run into a person I differ with, or if their name comes up in conversation, I don’t need to bring the last argument up all over again.

Holding a grudge will make you the desperate one.

Coke is better than Pepsi

And you still can’t hug your enough.

 Hmmm, I c my remarks have sparked some controversy. Does this mean I've become one of those evil bloggers who promulgate hate? LOL

Now I know how to write a popular blog post. From now on I guess I'll have to mention the cola wars in each one. LOL
