Another habit I acknowledge is when I leave for work, I’ll often say to my family, “Have a great day.” That’s an interesting statement to make. It’s as though it’s in my power to grant that. Here – have a great day. If it were in my power to do that, you better believe I […]
Read More Dryden Shorts: Have A Great DayI know it’s a habit when I discover that I have to do without it. Take the thing I’d have after my evening meal.
