Great rule of thumb to life by. It's so good to stop and think about how you are going to react to things and why you initially want to react that way...becuase sometimes stopping and thinking about the situtation will make you react differently.

By the way, that's easier said than done and I'm doing a poor job of it right now...
I will try harder...

You're right Angie, especially nowadays when we have so much going on and being shoved our way. A lot easier said than done...but I guess I will try a little harder too.

I used to live by this much more, but after reading this today, I really applied it to my life tonight at work. When things were trying me, I thought about them and made a conscious choice of how to feel. Thanks for posting this!!!
