I don't think something like that makes anyone "awful"! We each get into different things in different phases of life, I think. I was never big on baseball or football, but liked hockey and soccer. Now it's baseball, hockey and FUTBALL. haha!

Did the management company have that car towed from your spot? That's how it's done. ;) But yes, as I get angrier about Life matters (patriarchy, justice, and equality chief among them) I do keep in mind that "going with the flow" is better for my health, and that can often translate into kindness (or simply tolerance) which helps me and doesn't ruffle feathers further. It's not avoidance, which I know a lot about, and I fail a lot, but I try. You know what helps? I lower my speaking voice. I speak clearly, but by remaining aware of my voice, I keep my words and volume in check-- and for some reason, that helps my mind focus on the issue as something to resolve, not something to be mad about. I dunno. It seems to help me! haha

We do our best, right? That's living.
