" That fool is so brainless and annoying, I had to stop and tell him off!" did you really NEEd to do that. Did anything actually change by your doing that, Did the person become less, irritating difficult to deal with and more co-operative and pleasant. Can you tell me, in detail , just how MUCJ you gained by giving that man the " telling off he so deserved??!!
It is ACTUALLy possible that he never REALLy noticed you and so you just happened to be in his path when you were " offended, bothered, disturbed, delayed and annoyed". It is actually possible that he COULd be sonmeone who really doesn't care about what he does and who he displeases. Then , Your tirade would have gained you what????
Sometimes it is better to shrug off the bother and ask yourself how inmportant is it. Sometime it is best to just say" It's a bad moment in my day", sometimes it is best to think it and not say it, or pray for that person.
You never kow what reactions your scolding words might have, what consequences your words might bring about!!! So, As I'm SLOWLY Learning more and more,and actually!!!! practicing on my best days- AND Today has not!!! - LOL- been one of them-Taking a Breathe and Pausing is a valid, practical and beneficial response!!!!
