Inner Light

"You are educated when you have the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or self-confidence."--Robert Frost

Wow, this quote reminds me of so many moments when I watched someone lose their temper over a simple matter! I mean honestly this quote is on point with several situations where someone would fly off the handle in a great haste to take center stage. How can you take center stage if you are not the star? God bless them all, but it was truly a pathetic sight watching some people in my life trying to down play my exuberance in order to shine. Your light will only shine if it exist! One cannot awaken a dormant quality through humiliation of a friend! I never felt the need to put anyone on blast because I didn't need to, my confidence wouldn't allow it. I do not possess jealousy because I do not feel that anyone in my life is wealthier than I am. Wealth is a matter of perspective and inner security. I have the ability to make the best of what I'm handed and continue to walk with optimism.
