Again, You Are the Lens By Which You View the World

A good mood or a bad mood is relative. Some people seem to never get mired in a bad mood. Some people seem to never be able to draw themselves up and out of a crappy mood. The former are like dragonflies flitting here and there and touching the water's surface for just a moment before flitting away again. The latter are like boat anchors, stubbornly gripping the bottom of the sea tenaciously.

Its all too easy to forget that there is one person controlling how we choose to interact with the world. You. You choose whether you will be knocked down or lifted up by events outside of your personal reality. You decide if you're going to allow the stop light cheater to alter your mood.

You. Not anyone else. You.
