Time is like a river - it flows by and doesn't return. --Chinese Proverb
#1, was my lesson of late...letting roommate get to me , so now??? kind detachment.....NO response when she cycles in drama mode......distancing myself yet being courteous.....NOT picking up the rope she likes to toss at me.......
All of them are good, but I really identify with the Native American proverb. I used to ruminate over and over about things that happen the day before (or days before if I am truly honest!). What I should've said, what I could've done. It was exhausting! This proverb reminds me not to let the yesterdays steal the beauty and thunder from my Today!!
A good reminder for me
