“You’re going in through the exit, idiot.” These seven words from a stranger were enough to ruin the rest of the day for John. He’d just enjoyed a lovely week at the beach with his family and had stopped at a department store on the last morning of their vacation.

You may also need to accept that the score won’t be even, despite our strong desire for revenge. I was once honked at on my bike by a passing motorist for no apparent reason as I rode to work. In my anger I chased down the car at the next traffic light, only to realize I had no recourse once I got there -- no horn to blast them with and no desire for a face-to-face confrontation. I had no choice but to accept the unfairness and minor humiliation, and continue on my way.
Rather than fighting what the mind is doing, shift your perspective. No matter what we’re thinking or feeling, take a half-step back and observe it.

Watch the anger and rumination, rather than completely identifying with them.

Go to your safe space, and cry it out. Bunch of pansies.

Events like this can be a daily occurrence. We agree that life is unfair and sometimes things will happen out of your control. Great article!
Vice-President Kamala Harris has the power to end the filibuster. If Harris does not use her power to eliminate the false sense of power being exercised by McConnell and the GOP minority, then we elected the wrong people. Retweet if you agree.
