When you tell someone “good luck”, do you really mean it? When you tell them you “can’t wait to see them”, are you honest? I hate lying to folks, but sometimes it’s necessary. “Do I look fat in this dress”? Are you kidding me? That’s tantamount to the death penalty. “Best apple pie I’ve ever eaten”. That’s another one. One thing I’ve given up on is “suggesting”. There’s not a week goes by that someone will tell me they know I’ve been everywhere (not really) and ask for advice where to stay, eat,etc. I used to go out of my way to remember names, addresses, you know….the works. Then when they came back and I asked them about the recommendations? They never got there. They didn’t have time or someone else told them about this special place, so they went. Now, I just say I can’t remember. At my age, it works. I hate liars, at least that kind.
