Turn the Other Cheek

You can't let everything bother you. You need to pick and choose carefully what is important enough to get upset about. As I get older, the act of choosing has become easier. Things that do not directly effect me are on the bottom of the list of importance. My family is on the top of the list. To use a few cliches, I have learned to, "Turn the other cheek, take it with a grain of salt and let it roll off my back". In general, it is easier on your soul if you take things in perspective.
