Making It About Them

Before I got sick, someone did something at work that really bugged me. I felt so bothered that I talked to someone else about the situation. They suggested that I be nice and not let the person know that I felt bugged. I did it and it took tremendous effort on my part. I never expressed my frustration to this person. We worked together for several more months and if I saw them today I'd say that we're friends. They have many good things about them.

I think of that situation and how even though I wanted to be mad, the thing I did diffused my anger and let me see them as my friend. I have to go back to my mantra, 'You can never be too nice'.
