Today I had lunch alone at Jason’s Deli.  Don’t feel sorry for me.  Time alone is enjoyable plus I really wanted to read some of Billy (my boss’s) old leadership notes.

As I began to eat, I couldn’t help but notice four little kids come in.  Three boys with blonde hair and one little girl.  Their moms got in line to order while the kids rushed off to get a table.

“Who is the meanest girl? Who is the nicest boy?”

Asked the little girl while she was looking at her kindergarten yearbook.  The boys would point to a picture after each question.

First, I thought, aren’t little kids cute. Then it hit me, bad habits start so young.  We learn to judge and rank people from an early age.  I wish I wasn’t guilty, but I am.

Solution:

As you know, much of my so called “wisdom” comes from movies.  So here goes…

“Calling somebody else fat won’t make you any skinnier. Calling someone stupid doesn’t make you any smarter. And ruining Regina George’s life definitely didn’t make me any happier. All you can do in life is try to solve the problem in front of you.” – Cady from Mean Girls

Will take that little girl as long as me to start figuring this out?
