The Law of the Garbage Truck

Received below by Email: Liked it, wanted to enhance my putting my thoughts into it. But its too late in the night...Maybe Later. But read the below makes sense...

One day, I hopped into a taxi and took off for the airport . We were driving in the right lane when suddenly, a black car, jumped out of a parking space right in front of us.
My taxi driver slammed the brakes, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches. The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at us.. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. I mean, was really friendly. So I asked "Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!" This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call, The Law of the Garbage Truck.


He explained, "Many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up they need a place to dump it and sometimes they'll dump it on you.. NEVER take it
personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on with the routine life. Don't take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home or on the streets.


The bottom line is that successful people do not let garbage trucks take over their day.

Life's too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so...... 'Love the people who treat you right.. Pray for the ones who don't.'

Believe that everything happens for a reason.

If you get a chance, TAKE IT! If it changes your life, LET IT!Nobody said it would be easy.

They just promised it would be worth it!”

A very rightly said quote: Life is 10% what you make and 90% how you take!!!!

Seems like a description of a psychopath to me.

psychopath ( ) n. A person with an antisocial personality disorder, manifested in aggressive, perverted, criminal, or amoral behavior without empathy.

With that definition, read the text again:
People feel full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment with your behaviour. And you continue to smile, wave, wish them well, and move on with your routine life.

That is complete lack of empathy for the other person, and encouraging reckless behaviour!

Next set of mistakes:
'Love the people who treat you right.. Pray for the ones who don't. What a contradiction - Love people who treat you right, and then you go on to pray for ones who will not treat you right? Shows Thankslessness and lack of appreciatino for having people around you who treat you right.

Finally, it says Life is 10% of food and 90% of shit!
Awwab, pls use some intelligence of your own before posting such absolute crap!
