resistance is futile…

a common enough phrase (but have to love the Borg reference)….yet I do it again and again. I resist. I push back. I am stubborn about ridiculously small items occasionally. I’m a woman.

I resisted the iPhone, standing by Blackberry until my shoulders ached from the weight or carrying around the newest version, resisted a MAC, now can’t believe how user-friendly it actually is, and resisted an SUV, now thoroughly loving my Ella Fitzgerald, my black and sassy Sante Fe.

I wish I were more open to change, but I hold back, reluctant to believe that new is always improved (often I am right). Antibacterial soap, water bottles instead of tap water, blu ray….all have not changed the world the way they promised. OK, these are minor, but so are the things I resist.

I hate change. I am a woman.
