1-10?

"Some battles are worth fighting, but not many"


I have been trying a new approach to conflict in my life. When something unexpected or unfortunate happens in my life I have decided to rate the importance of it on a scale of 1-10. If it's not rated a 6 or over, I will let it go. I have to remind myself that most things that happen in life won't matter a few years from now, or even a few days from now. Why create un-neccessary tension and drama when there doesn't need to be. Why make something small and somewhat insignificant into something it doesn't need to be. This new approach has taught me so many things and saved me the drama. "Part of the happiness of life consists not in fighting battles, but in avoiding them"
