Took the wife to the grocery store this afternoon, dropped her off and I usually go park some place and wait but today-wow! Actually saw two cars touch bumpers over an open parking place (so much for good will to men); intersections in the lot was blocked by cars trying to beat others into potential parking spots. Pat got yelled at by a man in the store as they almost ran their carts into each other as they turned into the same aisle. At this time of resolutions I always make the one about losing weight but I think the big one has to be patience and tolerance with everyone. I have retired, going to have another birthday real soon, and quite frankly don't need the stress of getting upset because you cut me off, or don't signal to change lanes. I taught driver education and always preached defensive driving and looking out for the other driver to keep them out of trouble too. I hope that I can convince others that: less might be better, talking softly when you want people to listen and having discussions instead of arguing (no name calling!). Even though that d back or pitcher gets paid a lot of money to intercept the pass or throw strikes, they didn't do it on purpose to irritate me! I hope that administrators and leaders will too look to make decisions for the good of the "whole order"; I want us all to have great year of health and know the difference between those things we can change and those that we can't change.
