Okay, so I thought I was crazy, and really I think I was. Fine I have a quiet demeanor, but what’s behind that smile is some ‘sickness’ as you kids of today refer to it. In a quiet disposition I’ll give you hell….. but not of recent
Of recent I have found myself letting go of so many things, someone will say it’s maturity…..could be, but I believe it has more to do with me sighting a major howbeit obvious fact…..”all I have, I have been given”
I have been in need of a new pair of casual sneakers for quite a while now, I finally got one, super-nice, the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned, I rocked it with pride and joy. In taking maximum care of it I decided to wash the soles at by the weekend, I dried it, my dog destroyed the left leg…. Complete total final destruction.
I was mad, I was real mad…..I went to the dog, whip in hand, ready to lash out…..after the first whip I lost motivation, It just crossed my mind that “dude, the money with which you bought this shoe, it wasn’t yours, God gave it to you….. Immediately I stopped.
Last week, my brother and his girlfriend ate half the spaghetti sauce I was meant to sell to my customers today, one again, I was mad….real mad. I rehearsed how I would lash out at the both of them, I was fuming, then he came back, and quietly, I just expressed my displeasure, the total opposite of what I have planned, all through I just thought to myself, God provided both the money and the customers for which this is in place, now if my brother needs some of it, why wouldn’t I let him have some.
And with this I realized I have become a much more peaceful person, I have found some peace within that I have never before now harnessed.
When you actually realize you are just privileged to have these things you have, you will be less possessive, less adamant, and less violent. CHEERS
