I have these moments that just kind of pulse throughout the day where I will find myself getting mildly upset with myself. I’ll feel this twinge of frustration over how little my problems are… and it’s not the problems itself that make me upset, but just how little they are and how irrelevant they will eventually be a year from now. I unintentionally pause my attention on people who hurt me and walk out of my life when I should be investing my time and energy on those who chose to stick around and love me thoroughly and unconditionally.
Very selfish of me to momentarily put my problems on a pedestal. I’ve made peace w/ the peace, and I’m taking the high road. I can’t be someone else, nor can I be spiteful or revengeful. Things will always happen out of our control, but keep your hand on the wheel for the things you can control.
Pay your gratitude to those who walk out of your life, for they help affirm a better direction.
