quote from a newsletter I get

In life we need to realize we have no control, we are not in charge of people, places, events or things.  We are honestly powerless and the sooner we realize that, the more peaceful our lives can become.  People will disappointment and hurt you.  Events will not turn out the way you had planned.  Life has rainy days, windy days, beautiful days filled with gentle sunshine and days that are just days.

...................................................

Don't let people, computers, events or changes push you off your center of peace.  Seek out alternative ways to find your way through the maze of life.  There are plenty of paths to choose from.

Easier said than done. I don't think I've been "on center" ever. It would be nice. Regards, Bill.

That is really amazing, and beautiful, thank you. I really could've used that this weekend to help me see things differently.

Every day I steam a little bit less over the things I cannot control: the actions, words and thoughts of others, and I'm finding life is not so bad when you don't sweat the little things.

I'm learning, and I'm trying!

I think what this means has to do with not letting others ,events, situations, cause us to become disapointed because we had judgements or preconceived notions on how things should be. Sure we can vote, but we have no control on what others think, do, and say. We can get upset, or we can except that people are the way they are, events get canceled or it rains on your wedding day, or Your best friend stills your man. Those things we have no control, we only have an influence on others weither it be negative or positve. And if your life is God, well then only he has control over what will be or not be. And we have none.
