EXCUSES WHY I CAN'T MAKE IT TO THE REUNION
EXCUSE #1
“I’m overweight.”
REBUTTAL
You’re not alone!
EXCUSE #2
“I’m a different person than I was in high school.”
REBUTTAL
Lucky for you, we all are. Let’s face it, we could only have improved!
EXCUSE #3
“I don’t look as good as I’d like. I am (choose one or more) bald, have wrinkles, saddlebags, gray hair and no one will recognize me.”
REBUTTAL
Guess what! You won’t recognize anyone else either. Using the reunion committee as a representative sample, our whole class looks like a “before” photo in a plastic surgery ad.
EXCUSE #4
“I’m not successful. I’m not (choose one or more) a doctor, a lawyer or rich.”
REBUTTAL
You’ll be pleasantly surprised to find how much everyone has matured. We may be plump and wrinkled (see excuse 3 above) but we are not stupid. Money is not success!
EXCUSE #5
“I was not in a popular clique in school.”
REBUTTAL
Now that we are old and smart, those cliques have dissolved just like the superficialities they were based on. The only cliques you will notice at the reunion will be the sound of your joints as you walk around.
