Flexibility

How flexible are we?

How do we act when plans change?

There are people who start feeling upset. Whining that is done wrong to them, and yelling that they might not stop until they have what they want. This blind-eyed anger they spread to who wants to hear it, and they will support the crying child.

There comes a time that children learn that they not always may get what they want. It is a matter of well done raising. Tell your children to have manners, teach them that, when things go different, that there might be other ways to reach your goal. Don't cry, but act.

Yesterday this happened to me (us). A planned trip was delayed, because we drove wrong, and were about 2 hours later then planned at the location.
Imagine what should have happended if we got grumpy?  We should have spoiled a few hours with negativity, and forget that we were around for having fun. Okay, standing in the traffic jam is not fun, sure not when it happens 3 times, but it should not help to get angry. At who? For what to reach? 

And in the end we arrived at our destination, so all was well.
And after a nice walk, we ended with a huge piece of cake and a pot of coffee.  

Where did that bad day go to? It was fun, and we have plenty of memories, to tease eachother with for the coming weeks. :)

There is always a choice, for winning or whining, and you make that choice yourself.
