I listen too much to my kids.
My kid played in a kid play ground in the park. We left. He said oh I have to get my cap and my glasses. Some kid just broke his glasses and threw his cap in the water. He just had it one day. He was crying. They were without parents so I just left and bought some new ones.

Both our preachers openly admit, in front of the congregation, that "drivers" are the one trigger they have not yet smoothed out in their lives. (But, of course, we live in the town where every old no-driving person in the world comes to drive their car, right up until the day they die... probably behind the wheel.)
I think I need one of those. Just this morning, I was driving slow in the right lane because my mom was following me to the mechanic's shop. The car in the left lane was driving right along side me for some stupid reason so all these cars were behind him wanting to pass, so at one point he decides go to ever so slightly faster... and of course the jerk in the pickup truck behind him cuts me off and almost runs me off the road to get by. What the heck is the matter with people!
I guess I never at looked at it that way. What I do know is that her doing that instigated a sort of pain in me. Not a huge gaping wound but the slight sting of disrespect, maybe invalidated somewhat, maybe a little powerlessness etc. In the past I believed those things about myself...that I wasn't respectable or valid and powerless most of the time. So I walked around with those open wounds bleeding all over the place and everyone who jabbed a knife in them...or at least my skewed hurting perception of that. Lol. A year ago that would have ruined my day, I would have stewed on it and at the end of it would be wiped out emotionally and not even know why.....,and honestly, I didn't think about it again until I got home a wrote the op.
I dont suffer from from all that emotional pain anymore so I am better able to go with the flow of life, and when people are rude or selfish it doesn't surprise me and I just remember that I was there once. Maybe in different ways, my pain turned inward and I constantly sinned against myself. Although I did build pressure from it and would explode eventually. Processing my personal pain from childhood has set me free from all those lies I believed about myself. I want that for others too. That's why I post the way that I post here in this community....because I know there are lots of people hurting just like I did...and I want them to find comfort and hope that with Jesus and a little determination, they can get emotionally well too.
I wondered if that lady thought about our interaction. Next time it happens, I gained a little confidence that I might take it a step farther. At this point I don't know how that will look but I trust the Holy Spirit will let me know.

Hubby got a day off from the wound vac, so wheeled around the nursing home all by himself in his new sportster wheelchair. (Speckled limegreen paint job, so looks like an early 70's Mustang.) He went outside to enjoy some tunes with one of the other guys, played on the computer, and then wheeled back. And when I came in, he showed off -- he walked from his bed for about four feet to his wheelchair without even using the walker.
Only two things stop him from coming home --
the wound vac and they have to remove the feeding tube out of his stomach. (Hasn't needed it for four weeks.)
Something is going good for somebody!
I'm getting my husband back home soon!
