No. Simply no.

I told my sister no yesterday. It wasn't easy. It took a while to work up to it, but in the end, I did it.

I'm proud that I didn't get upset or yell. I just took a deep breath, centered myself, and said no. Not a lot of explanation. No apologies. Just no.

It was a big moment. Maybe there's hope for me yet.

What a feeling, isn't it?! To communicate clearly, without attachment or entanglement.

Bravo.

Yay!! Wonderful. This is the best news I've heard all day. By far.

Congratulations.

Its OK if it takes time to work up to some things. Maybe if you keep doing it, it'll get easier! I'm sure there'll be more opportunities. :)
