Life Without Sarcasm

                I am a very sarcastic person; it is how my family has joked all my life.  I have been challenged to not be sarcastic or negative for the next three months.  It has been in a word:
Difficult
                It is very hard to completely change the way you communicate.  My friends have me do push-ups whenever I say something sarcastic or negative.  I’m pretty sure I am going to be more muscular by the end of the three months…  Whenever I am at my internship it tends to be a lot easier than when I am at work.  At work there is no real accountability, and if there were I could not exactly just stop in the middle of the deli (I work at Kroger deli) and start doing push-ups.
Hope

                I hope that this experience grows me, and helps me to have real conversations with people.  I want to come out of this experience with a better foundation for relationships.
