The 365 Commitment

The Tempest is Raging

You are doing something really wrong if things are not in a tempest around you. You are doing something wrong if you raging because of the tempest around you. Here is a life lesson that I am trying to implement. I should not be trying to calm the people, environment, and culture around me rather I should working on calming myself. I should not be trying to avoid the tempest, but rather should learn to calm myself as I head straight into the storm. I should not run from conflict, rather embrace conflict and learn to calm myself down and accept it. I should not shirk from criticism, but accept the fact that I have received it, relish it, and be grateful for it.
The Tempest is Raging, but I remain calm.
