I think about this quote as often as possible. I need to as I sometimes have very little of this precious commodity. Sometimes, I want others to do what I want, when I want it - still. This is old behavior, unhealthy for my own mind. Being intolerant no longer cuts the mustard for me.
I share on this topic because I'm in that intolerant state again. Writing it out helps me to remember it. Thanks for listening.
there are certian people that say things that scream out to me. Hellen Keller being one. this is probably politically incorrect to say but i have learned more from disabled people than from anyone else. lots of them have the greatest attitudes and dispite everything the are positive about things.
I rather find myself going over my life and seeing just how good I have got it and feel so petty. I just don't seem to put things in perspective intuitively...i can be such an idiot. I realize that i am just a grain of sand on this shore and there are greater things that i could be doing rather than complain or be more grateful for. The more i work this program the more i catch myself in these behaviors and the quicker i shut-up. And hopefully there will come a time where i don't need to be so vigilant of myself.
