Chipping Away at Defects of Character

[MajestyJo]

Just for today, I will try not to react, especially to other people's actions. The taxi driver today was rude and slamming doors, and his body language was even nastier than what came out of his mouth. I even gave him an extra dollar, because he was not please that my fare was a short ride. It was his stuff, and by giving him the extra money, I was taking it on. It is his job. I can't remember if I said the words or not, but I thought, "By helping me, perhaps you will get a better fare later."
