Be aware of the favors you take! A circumstance can teach such a powerful and valuable lesson if you take notice. We all want to take the short-cut and favor in some circumstances but we have to know when we sometimes need to be patient even when we think it's a right now moment. A man stops to allow me to make a left turn as I began to thank him for the favor I see another vehicle approaching quickly so I hesitated and decided to wait because I knew not what the other vehicle would do but as they got closer they slowed down so I could attempt the turn. Because I decided to wait the first man now refused me to turn and accelerated and said some words of anger. Lesson learned - although I wanted to take that favor I refused because I knew it was not mine to have. If I'd taken the favor the outcome would have been one of the two things - I arrived at my destination maybe 2 minutes early or I could have been killed if that other car would have kept going at the speed it was going. My life is more than a favor or a short-cut so I've chosen to be more patient and evaluate each circumstance before taking the easy way out. Have patience it could be worth your life!
