Of Little Things …

You know how little things tend to bother you? I mean the really, really little things … such as a slightly depressed key on your keyboard.

Ok, stop scrolling and look at your keyboard. Any slightly depressed keys? Not the ones directly under your fingers, silly :P

Or that slight squeak in your office chair … or the annoying conversation your co-worker is having with a person with another department, who doesn’t seem to be able to understand the function of your department. Much less your role in the department.

And loudness. Oh my god. Some people just don’t know how to talk softly. They think that they are the centre of the universe and act as such. How annoying.

I’m sure everyone has had brushes with people like this. Some more than others. And I’m sure that some of those out there are actually these people. Making life more interesting for others. Yeah, right … more interesting … that’s one way of putting it.

Should there not be a law, simply to outlaw people who are of this description? It would certainly make life more peaceful, if not more interesting, for the rest of us.

All that makes the depressed key of your keyboard seem so insignificant, huh? Well, if you haven’t yet realised … that’s how life goes. There will be always be things bigger and things that are smaller than what you have … errr … yeah, I can hear the distinct ‘click’ of some reader’s mind there (and yes, it does apply to that also).

In the end … its not what happens, but how you deal with it that matters. But you already knew that :P
