That Spur of Moment !!

We all are intelligent souls, aware of our surroundings, but many a times we react at the spur of the moment which haunts us the whole day.

This morning I honked to a passerby in a school campus who had this belief that I was speeding. She was making signs towards me, asking me to slow down.

I was driving at 5 miles/hr. What more can you expect from me?

That spur of the moment when anger strikes or it hurt my ego when I was doing something right and still being accused of it made me blow the horn.

Needless to say, I felt bad after that.

I thought that I could have done a better job in controlling myself by just smiling at her but instead replied back with that same tone.

I should have breathed in and kept my ego aside.

Mantra for today: Reacting at the spur of the moment is always fatal.
