One girlfriend told me I have a cute bum. Another told me I have wicked eyes.
Early 1975, I was talking to my next door neighbour,who happened to be a friend and a clinical psychologist.
I told him that I had the chance to go to university as a mature age student.I said I was not going to apply as I didn't think I was smart enough.
His response ;"mate,you'll shit it in" (Aussie expression for 'effortless')
I got in,and earned my degree,with straight A's. I began to tell myself that I might not be as stupid as I had always thought. That compliment helped me change my life.
This year: A lawyer friend told me I'm the most intellectually stimulating person she knows --or it might have been "challenged"
