[quote=Anonymous]To 07;28 - Yes I Got it, thank you.
It's difficult to get people to behave. If you get several people together like at a dinner, it's likely that some will misbehave. If one can view it as comical it helps.
What happens is most people are selfish and instead of doing what I want them to do they do what they want to do. If that starts getting to me, that's when I think about the fact that "the things I cannot change" are "other people" and the "only thing I can change" is "me (or my attitude)."
I'm an atheist but I sit quietly if I'm somewhere grace is being said and I hold hands but look around the room instead of bowing my head. I have been tempted when a prayer went on too long, to shout "Amen" and then start dishing out food. I've never done that and probably never will but I'd like to.
I apologize for my post about praying for the sun to go down. I wasn't trying to be disrespectful, I just wasn't being considerate nor did I really give it much thought. I'll try to behave better in the future.[/quote]
