As a former Starbucks barista, I can think of many negative things to say about gas station coffee... If dark colored flavored water counts as coffee. In fact, once you've had real coffee from all over the world... Like Starbucks, or intelligentsia, or many other types... going back to the knockoff stuff just really doesn't do anything for you anymore except make you feel gross and cheap… and just kinda leaves a bad taste in your mouth. Like Folgers…

Today I went to the store and the cashier gestured at me and was very rude to me I called her a bad name under my breath.
I really don't understand why God allows people like that to have anything...
Yeah I get it, yeah yeah yeah, everyone is the same way...all have fallen short of the glory of God.
But today, for the first time in a long time I actually wanted to inflict pain on her...
But I'll get over this feeling in about the next hour or so..
Maybe I'm feeling something else.
Then I came home and I was so very blessed to have a tree branch fall off from a tree and hit my arm. It felt more like a log of .....I TOLD YOU SO..
What the h e double hockey sticks.

Things like that happen to me sometimes too. I recently read something that helped. It said to basically separate yourself from the situation and just let things happen as they may, not reacting or getting invested with emotion, instead just letting things unfold and accepting whatever happens knowing that its happening outside of you, separate from you. Be like water. Water does not strike back when its attacked or when it comes against an obstacle. It simply flows around it while yielding to it, but it is also not harmed by it. I know that's pretty esoteric but it has helped me so I thought I'd share.
Wow you know about Yip Man? 
It wasn't him though. Its an author who often does talks on PBS (not sure if you get that tv network there). The tao is just one of the things that he has studied. He also speaks about the teachings of mother teresa, ghandi, even Jesus and others but he's not a religious figure.

You know a lot more about Yip Man than me then. I knew he was bruce lee's teacher and mentor and also a grandmaster of kung-fu, but I havent seen any of the movies. I need to see them! Yea I admire mother teresa and ghandi too. I think their attitudes were very much like we should be as christians when it comes to loving others and being selfless.
