"I started the day around 5:00 a.m. trying to block out a loud -mouthed argumentative husband," Rosalind's e-mail began.  Ugh, now there's someone challenged to put good in "good morning."  I kept reading.

"To brighten my own day I decided to wear a bright yellow dress with reddish-orange flowers to accent my U Rock Acapulco red nail color.  As I walked down the street I sang to myself, 'I am my sunshine,' like the O-Jays' song.

I was quite tickled by the many smiles and compliments I received throughout the day. As it turned out, I brightened up more worlds than my own, and my nail color is still cute on my teeny weenie nails!  My work day is now over and all is well. Glory!"

Wow, now there's a real Wonder Woman!  What I truly love about Rosalind's story is that she didn't let others dictate whether or not she was going to enjoy her day.  Instead, she let her nail color inspire her to make a decision to slip on a bright sundress, to put a smile on her face, and to start singing.

Living like your nail color is a decision you make every day.  That day Rosalind certainly lived like her nail color, U Rock Acapulco.  Indeed, she rocked!
