Working through the 227 Rules For Monks.
Who knew the simple life could be so complex.
Picky
as you said
I am picky
not that I didn’t appreciate your offer
I’ve learned
that just because I can
doesn’t mean I have to accept
I’ve learned by past experience
time after time
of saying yes
to please someone
who wants to gratify some need of mine
doesn’t result in satisfaction
so when I say no
it is because I don’t want to
not that I’m not interested
or that it isn’t something I might enjoy
but because I know better
in fact
I’d rather have you think
I’m picky
than explain why I say no
and calling me picky
isn’t going to change my mind
