JOURNALING: Last year, whenever a client wouldn’t follow through, answer an email, sign a form or get back to us, I started saying, “What is WRONG with people?” This phrase popped up all the time, and became a most-often repeated phrase in the office. It didn’t apply to just clients...it could be to a story we saw on social media, talking about family, politics, the world in general: What is WRONG with people? So, for Christmas, though Bruce and Cheyenne got us each a very lovely gift, Cheyenne got us both a “gag gift.” Adelya got a puzzle box that I think she and her husband are still trying to open, and got me this “easy” button already loaded with Cheyenne saying, “What is WRONG with people?” It was the funniest, most thoughtful gift I’d received in a long time. Just the idea that someone noticed I was saying this a lot and thought it was funny and endearing meant so much. Now I don’t have to say it, I can just push the button. And sometimes, we push it a lot!
