1. My parents did something really stubborn and positively frustrating. But today, I made up my mind that it's not that important. From the perspective of life and death, it's actually totally trivial. Moreover, like every other human being, I want sympathy and understanding, so I decided that I ought to give sympathy and understanding as well, if that's what I claim to value. I decided to let it go.
2. I went to the bank today to do an international transaction, and the teller did something absolutely frustrating. However, it was nothing that would affect the outcome of the transaction. I decided not to let my emotions snowball in my mind. I thought about how the situation might look from her perspective, and it all seemed a lot more reasonable. I didn't say a word or flash a negative facial expression, and the whole transaction went very smoothly, from start to finish. We smiled at each other and exchanged wishes for a good day as I left.
3. I made something for some people today that seemed to make them supremely happy. They laughed and smiled for a good thirty minutes.
My good actions are now locked in the past where they can't be stolen or taken away from me. That makes me so happy.
