Amy has annoyed me for longer than you could ever know Christian.

If I were a better man:

In as many such situations as possible I would actually talk to the person. If they are annoying me, actually being nice to them might just change how I’m feeling. If I am for some reason annoying them (could it be that Amy would have made Tim’s list because she is the slow person that the rest of us have to wait on?) then I have a chance to show kindness to them through my words and possibly change how they are feeling.

The one that always gets me is that pushy lady behind me in the Redbox line. She stands way too close and snaps her gum to try to make you choose a movie faster. I guess I’m just used to the privacy people give you in the ATM line, but those kinds of people are too pushy for me.

I guess I should just deal with the minor intrusion and not let it ruin my attitude for the rest of the day.

It is a tough one to wrap your mind around. My initial reaction is to demand my rights. But if Jesus had demanded his, I’d be out of luck.

not how I normally react. I’m cool with being nice until I’m irritated! it’s something I struggle with daily.

It reminds me of when you were teaching tonight talking about leaving a big tip when you have crappy service and I kept saying “Yeah, but what if you have HORRIBLE service?” Something I’ll be pondering the next couple days.
