Here goes nothing...
OK... here goes nothing. I am going to try this out for a bit, not really sure what to expect but I have to admit the thought intrigues me. I constantly have thoughts in my head that I need to get out, so this should prove to be a pretty good forum for that exact purpose.
Have you ever wondered, I mean really wondered, what other people are thinking? Like the guy sitting outside of Walgreen's begging for money. When I told him no today he was nice enough and said "thank you anyways" but I'm pretty sure if he had a knife he would of stabbed me, and he probably called me a bitch the second I walked away. Just something to think about... and the old lady behind the counter at the Post Office. Is her life really so miserable where she screams "NEXT" without even looking up and then doesn't even crack a smile during your entire transaction? Then you honestly didn't think anyone was coming so you turned into traffic. Well there WAS somebody and they're going about 30 MPH over the speed limit. They get right up behind your car and you think for a second they might even hit you, then they swerve into the next lane and scream profanities at you and flip you off. You know what? I just laugh to myself, and feel very sorry for them... life goes on ya know?
My point being life is too short to not enjoy every single second and make the most of everyday. 6 months ago if someone cut me off I got so angry, I would yell at them and let it ruin my mood. Now, who cares? Life goes on and I don't even think twice about it.
"Pick your battles" was the best advice anyone ever gave me. The next time you feel yourself getting hot and your about ready to blow up, ask yourself if it's worth it. Is anything going to be solved by you freaking out or screaming about something or to somebody. I repeat the phrase "pick your battles" to myself at least 2 or 3 times a day, I take a deep breath and save my energy for something good instead. We're not gettin' any younger here... let's make the most of every single second.
