Compliments

I don't like wearing the new clothes I get for my birthday or Christmas too soon after the holiday. I don't like to start diets or exercise regiments too soon after the New Year. I don't like getting haircuts. Anything that draws undesired attention, even if necessary, makes me uncomfortable. I hate recognition. Actually, public displays of recognition. I certainly enjoy being appreciated. Maybe overhearing someone speak kindly about me is tolerable. Maybe I am just bad at taking compliments. I am going to resolve this year to be more accepting of other's compliments.
