Food for thought - Garbage truck

Food for thoughts... let our karma grow upon us.... :pray:

Garbage Truck.

One day I hopped in a taxi and we took off for the airport.

We were driving in the right lane when suddenly a black car jumped out of a

parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes,

skidded, and missed the other car by just inches! The driver of the other

car whipped his head around and started yelling at us. My taxi driver just

smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was really friendly.

So I asked, 'Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and

sent us to the hospital!' This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now

call, 'The Law of the Garbage Truck.'

He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full

of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment.

As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes

they'll dump it on you. Don't take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish

them well, and move on. Don't take their garbage and spread it to other

people at work, at home, or on the streets.

The bottom line is that successful people do not let garbage trucks take

over their day. Life's too short to wake up in the morning with regrets,

so..... 'Love the people who treat you right. Pray for the ones who don't.'

Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you take it!(so

true)

Glad everyone is benefitting from this... I myself have learnt over the years to not let road rage get into me which is a good thing cuz all the morning traffic jams are madness with crazy drivers... Just imagine the anger getting into you while you are on your brand new day... definitely not worth it.

Cheers....

Agreed with you bro, we'll try not to "center finger" them! Btw, saw you yesterday along Siglap Rd with your 'top down'!. Presume you're going back home after work.
