Say How You Feel

It is better to just say how you feel than to hold it in and be angry. That was yesterday's theme. It started with one of my doctor's saying that he did something nice for his mother in law and she looked at him with a scrunched up face. He said to her, "Is that the new way to say thank you to someone who just went out of their way for you to make you happy?". After a moment she got it and smiled and thanked him. If he had let it go, he would have been upset all night. I also had to tell someone that they did not act appropriately. I could have held it in and been angry but I chose to tell the person in a kind way that they did something that offended me. By the end of the conversation things were back on track. Open communication is the key to a peaceful life.
