I don't over-react to over-reactors.

Seems incredible to me. How human beings get upset over little things. Meaningless things. I see it every day. Might just be an inclement weather day. Or the matter-of-fact way one has been treated. Or for being locked in a traffic jam for a half hour. Really minor stuff in the grand scheme of life. I live around such people. And occasionally I’m the one guilty of the infraction. But less so as I get older. Often, I get through a day without being annoyed over anything. Doesn’t necessarily mean it was a perfect day. Only that I’m able to control my reactions to daily events. I don’t overreact. In fact, I don’t even overreact to people who grossly overreact. –Jim Broede
