FABULOUS!

I never really thought that I would become one of those people who used the word 'fabulous'. And yet somehow since I became a 'style specialist' at Le Chateau 
I have noticed that it has found its way into my vocabulary. Take, for instance, the following exerpts which I have actually spoken:
-At Tim Hortons they hand me my double double and I say "Fabulous!". Then they hand my sandwich and I again respond with "Fabulous!"
- At work, "That dress looks fabulous on you!"
It is not like I am suggesting there is anything wrong with style of speech, or the people who speak this way, I just never thought that I would become one of them.
The big question is then, does this one word change who I am? Have I become a different person, or a person who does life differently just because everything is "Fabulous!"? I don't think that this simple word or the way it changes how I relate to people changes who I essentially am, however it does build on my personality. If it is just a building block on a tall tower (I am fairly tall after all) called "me", is it a brick that I particularily like? I think it is not harmful, provided that I do not draw only on the "Fabulous!" source from here on in.
This discussion points to another important life-concept which has been mulling around in my head for a while. It deals with the building blocks that make up who I am. Every step I take and permission I give myself in a certain direction leads me in that respective direction. To become what we want to become we must build on to ourselves what will lead us in that desired direction. The same goes for the directions we don't want to be carried in. What may seem like a simple exception, could lead me to becoming a person who I definatly don't want to be. So then, we must constantly be on our guard, measuring and testing, to streamline our lives in the way that we want to be going. It can be a tiresome process, but it is what must be done if I want to become a certain way. For instance, if I want to become closer to God (which I do) then I must not do the things that seperate me from him. Yes, I realize this seems simple, but the process of weighing everything I do, is far from simple. Some things are simple. Most things are slightly to really gray. Or a delicate balance. But if I keep on this path towards what God would have me
be I know the outcome will be "Fabulous!"
