Haha, Inky. That’s hilarious! Great to hear your experience and perspective!

AikiBen, such great advice. I didn’t even think of this situation enabling me to grow. I just was stuck on why I react this way and not wanting to react. And yep, the ego is telling me lots of stories about how I should be and how others should act. I guess I need to keep these things in mind and try not to let my feelings and thoughts overwhelm me to the point of becoming cynical.

Thank you for your help. Your perspective really changed the way I feel about the situation!
