Are you a garbage truck?


This has to be one of the best emails I have received in a long time because when you sit and think about the meaning, it is so true.

Law of the Garbage Truck

This concerns the reaction of a taxi driver, who, one day experienced a black car which jumped out of a parking space right in front of him. The taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches! The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at the taxi driver. He just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was really friendly.

You might wonder why he react that way; that guy had almost ruined the taxi and sent the driver to the hospital!' This is when this taxi driver explained what I now call, 'The Law of the Garbage Truck:'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..

Don't take it personally!!! Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on.

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.

Love the people who treat you right.

Pray for the ones who don't.

Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you take it!Have a garbage-free day!
