Kurai Extravaganza

Around me, I hear people moan about loads of things. Parents, people whom they spoke to on the phone, collegues, etc. It seems that everyone gets bugged by silly little things which should not take so much energy and trouble. If one can not accept them, one should just tolerate them. Just act as if you can?t see them and try not to fight them, it won?t help anyway. Tolerating things as little as what bugs us in everyday life can?t be that difficult. I mean, hardly anyone whom I know has issues which are REALLY hard to deal with. If Catherine de? Medici ould deal with having Diane de Poitiers around, the woman whom the king had loved since his fifteenth year ? as Flien-chan?d say, that?s what happens if one arranges marriages. Obviously I gould get up in enormous monologues about this subject, but let?s not go there now. If Catherine could tolerate her husband?s lifelong mistress, then surely you could be a bit more tolerant of the world around you. By doing so, by accepting certain ? unwritten ? rules(for example: it was customary for a king to take mistresses, in ancient days, and a queen could do little other than accepting that), things certainly will be more smooth.You may find out that by accepting their silly, childish rules, people will actually be more inclined to do your bidding.

I am writing ?you?, while this is about me aswell (then again, what isn?t? Egocentrcal being as I am... ^^). I really should pay more atention to this. Beware, if things do not go my way and I loose control over my anger (though it goes better than that I used to, still hottempered, but at least not trying to strangle my brother every once in a while> Then again, it?s a process called ?growing up?). Ginger Snaps is nothing compared to it...

In order to get what you wish, just shut your eyes, grind your teeth and deal with it.
