I Am Rude

I am rude. I don't know why. Over the last few years I have slowly stopped thinking twice before speaking.

As it turns out, the first thing I think about is generally not at all nice. I should go back to saying the second thing I think. Many people wish they could come up with biting comments before they are a block away, just to offend the other person. I find myself thinking of polite responses a little too late.

Even though the person behind the counter may be closely related to the vegetable kingdom, I have to remind myself that even artichokes have hearts.
