The Art or Talent of Saying No

I can't say NO.

I need to learn how to say that word.



At 70, you'd think I would be able to say it.

But, I can't.



Consequently, I get myself into some difficult straits.

Perhaps I just need to practice:

No, I'm sorry, but I won't be able to do that.

It won't be possible for me at this time.

Sorry, but I am not able to right now.

Perhaps you could ask me again in ten years or so.

Who am I kidding?

It just ain't gonna happen!



But, on the other hand; I suppose it's good to be of service.
