Don't take the bait...
When someone attempts to invite you to a pointless duel...
Please duck and save your energy for something much more kool...
Flex on the enemy's tactics; go take a dip in the pool!

Yes!! Don’t take the bait indeed!! 💪🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You mean we could have been having pool parties ALL this time!? Everyone party at Tiff’s place, pronto! 🏊♂️ Terrific message! 😊
Hii Gordon, your article ends before it starts.....😂😂. But I like it
Yes, some people deliberately make themselves look the victim! Well said!
I will try and take this with me into the new day.
Good advice :)
Still too cold for the pool here, but sage advice. Hey Tiff, still seeking motivation, maybe I will just sit wrapped up by the pool. Hi there. Cool motivation.

Wise advice!!! Super Cool!!!💕❤️❤️
Sage counsel. Of course, when isn't it sage counsel to go take a dip in the pool? (Right after getting a perm or your arm put in a cast.)
Time & energy are precious. Save that for people who are grateful for it. Pick your battles after reflection. Awesome poem, as always, my friend. ⚡💙⚡
Wonderful advice <3
Great advice, Emily!
