Law of the Garbage Truck

This is a story I found and I thought it was really cool, so I wanted to share with you.

"One day I hopped in a taxi and we took off to 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 brakes, skidded and missed the other car just by inches. The driver in 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? The 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 dumped 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 so not let garbage trucks take over their day. Life is to short to wake up one morning with regrets, so----Love the people who treat you right. Pray for the ones who don't. Life is ten percent what you make it and ninty percent on how you take it. "

Have a Garbage Free Day!!!!!

I just love the above and wanted to share it.
