Do you ever wonder if you are too nice? Especially in response to people who are not too nice?
I don’t think being too nice is the problem, these days. Personally, I think it’s nice when people are nice. Indeed, it’s nice to think about nice people being in charge for a while.
When people are the opposite of nice on Twitter, I think it’s very nice when somebody responds, “S/he seems nice.” It’s nice to have an all-purpose comeback like that about mean people. Often I’m too shocked (if not too nice) to know how to quickly and effectively respond to verbal abuse in the moment.
Of course, it’s important to respond to abuse. I just don’t think self doubt about being “too nice” (or “too anything”) helps us act and move forward.
Are any of my recent images too nice ?

Is it too nice if I celebrate here in America with “America” from West Side Story?
It would be so nice if you share your thoughts and feelings, below, without worrying if you’re being too nice or not nice enough.
It’s impossible to be too grateful, so thanks to all who help me create this daily blog, including YOU.
