Armageddon???

​​​Just a quick note to say thank you.  Sometimes events happen that, in the big scheme of things... really are insignificant.  Those same things at the right (or wrong) time can seem like they are the only thing that matters... they can knock you off your game and command your focus.  
Such a moment happened to me yesterday.  I was feeling frustrated, defeated, pissed off; all at the same time.  A friend walked up to me and immediately knew something was very wrong. 

He said hello, asked me a couple of questions and suddenly I had a solution! He didn't dwell on the issue, he didn't make a big deal of the situation.  He simply showed me a way where I couldn't see one.  He did it with all the excitement of asking someone to pass the salt.  

Today... the solution has been implemented.  Life as we know it did not come to an end!  (It was close but we were able to avoid it!!)
Because of my friend I was able to remember that how I react to events in my environment is up to me and that problems usually have solutions... sometimes you have to go looking for them and sometimes they walk up and say hello!
