The Law of the Garbage Truck

I hopped in a taxi and we took off for the airport. We were driving in the

right lane when suddenly a black car jumped out of a parking space right in

front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his breaks, skidded, and missed the

other car by just inches!

The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at

us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy And I mean, he was

really friendly.

So I asked, 'Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and

sent us to the hospital!'

This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call, 'The Law of the

Garbage Truck.' He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They

run around full of garbage, full of frustration! ,full of anger, and full of

disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it and

sometimes they'll dump it on you. Don't take it personally. Just smile,

wave, wish them well, and move on. Don't take their garbage and spread it to

other people at work, at home, or on the streets.

The bottom line is that successful people do not let garbage trucks take

over their day. Life's too short to wake up in the morning with regrets,

so.....

'Love the people who treat you right. Pray for the ones who don't.'
