"Learn to calm the waves and master the monsters, without allowing yourself to be carried away or caught by them."
-Thich Nhat Hahn
Sometimes it is difficult to dodge the waves in your life. Sometimes I wonder what the right thing is to do, and I almost always come to the conclusion to avoid over-thinking whatever is bothering me. Over-thinking tends to complicate thoughts and tangle you up in feelings you had no interest in becoming involved in. Life, I've learned, can be simple if we let it be. I can't change the way people are going to act or the things they are going to say, but I can control how I react to them. I'm choosing to not react to the waves in my life. I'm choosing to mix things up and start doing things a little differently. I'll let you know how that goes. Stay tuned.
