Life is just too short to be so upset about trivial things. I know this truth. I tell myself this almost every day and yet, when I least expect it -- WHAM! I get hit with that pesky bug that makes me freak out over the little things. I don't know how paper can push my buttons or impatience can cause me to be so nasty sometimes.
Then I end up at the hair salon to get my hair cut and styled (and a dye job). I look at two beautiful, adorable twin Asian little girls getting identical haircuts too. They are so cute. All they can think about is holding still and being good so when they are done they can run over and pet the puppy.
Times like these make me stop and just watch the innocence of life. What could be so important that I had to get all twisted out of shape over when I need to just hold still and be good so when I'm done I can run over and pet the puppy too.
Life really can be so simple in the eyes of a child. I think sometimes we adults need to learn from them. I hope I remember this "double" lesson.
