"You cannot always control what goes on outside, but you can always control what goes on inside"
I'm glad I get great words of wisdom sent to me on Facebook. I received this one a while ago and saved it as I knew it would of course come in handy.
During the last week, I had my rain jacket stolen from a store I was visiting when I laid it down for a few minutes, and only for the second time in my life, walked out of a restaurant. I only had water so I didn't need to pay and felt I needed to escape in that moment to be in control. Sorry, but I can get miserable when I'm both hungry and tired!
I was so glad the jacket did not contain keys, wallet, or any other valuables. The person left with a few used Kleenexes and a pair of $1.00 gloves. Why would someone steal and risk getting caught over an inexpensive used jacket?
The restaurant only had 3 other people there and they were eating already. Why would it take over an hour to not get a pizza, and also have to cancel the order for the "appetizer special" that was obviously forgotten and not to be the appetizer...
It is so nice to have a treasure chest of tools to bring out when needed. I hope the lady likes my jacket and someone else got to eat our pizza whenever it was hot and ready!
Take Care!
