A simple request becomes a headache while a farfetched hope is easily attained. Clearly the Universe is in an ironic humor today.

It’s easy to get overwhelmed when there are so many opportunities to choose from. That’s why it’s best to start with the one closest at hand.

Gushing praise always makes you uncomfortable, but indulge yourself. You never know when you’ll be on the receiving end of it again.

Someone close to you is sporting a new look. Make a point of noticing. You’re taking your life into your hands if you don’t.

Are you sincere about mending bridges or fixed on settling an old score? Be sure motives are pure or you’ll pay later.

That person in distress may end coming to your rescue. But don’t worry. S/he will still appreciate your heroic effort.
