Sales tactics...

I got thinking while I was in the bath last evening, thinking about how I needed to purchase a new bottle of hairspray, and how I had to remember the brand name for it as it's convincingly the best hairspray I've come across for my hair. I have very fine hair, and using any supermarket hairspray makes my hair look like I haven't washed it for a week, or better yet, a dole bludger with bad roots from the back suburbs.

Anyway, I got thinking about sales people and their tactics they use to sell their wares. I was recalling the time the woman was advising me to buy this particular brand because it was so good "uses it personally" for her hair.

Is that the case when sales people are trying to sell something? Do they REALLY use it or are they just trying to make a sale?

I want

The best poem I've ever come across, read it in a magazine eons ago! (hah i'm so old not!)
It's so true through the hard times... when you want to hide, but want to stand tall and proud too.

*~*~**

I want.

I want to let go
Just be free,
So I am happy
Like I want to be.

I want to overcome
The pain I feel,
I want to run
'Til my heart can heal.

I want to forget
The problems on my mind,
Just turn my back
And forget what's behind.

I want to shield
My love away,
I want to ignore
What my heart has to say

I want to be me
I don't want to hide,
The person I really am
I want to decide.
