Today I was talking about how I almost lost my cool at the store the other night. I felt I wasn't getting a "fair shake" with my transaction. Anyway, as I could feel my anger rising and I was getting ready to spew a little venom but a still small voice spoke and said "Don't get angry. It's not their fault and it is not going to help the situation." I know that wasn't a voice that came from me. I knew it was my Creator reminding me that we are all his children and that we are all to be treated like we want to be treated. I walked away and happened to catch a glimpse of the my shirt. It boldly had the logo of my church plastered on the front of it. Thank you God for gently reminding me that people are ALWAYS watching us when we say we are Jesus lovers.
Take a look at this article that goes a little further.

Letter from a Mother to Her Daughter
By Sergio Cadena (from Spring In the Air)
My dear girl, the day you see I’m getting old, I ask you to please be patient, but most of all, try to understand what I’m going through. If when we talk, I repeat the same thing a thousand times, don’t interrupt to say, “You said the same thing a minute ago." Just listen, please. Try to remember the times when you were little and I would read the same story night after night until you would fall asleep.
When I don’t want to take a bath, don’t be mad, and don’t embarrass me. Remember when I had to run after you making excuses and trying to get you to take a shower when you were just a girl?
When you see how ignorant I am when it comes to new technology, give me the time to learn, and don’t look at me that way. Remember, honey, I patiently taught you how to do many things like eating appropriately, getting dressed, combing your hair, and dealing with life’s issues every day.
The day you see I’m getting old, I ask you to please be patient, but most of all, try to understand what I’m going through.
If I occasionally lose track of what we’re talking about, give me the time to remember, and if I can’t, don’t be nervous, impatient or arrogant. Just know in your heart that the most important thing for me is to be with you.
And when my old, tired legs don’t let me move as quickly as before, give me your hand the same way that I offered mine to you when you first walked. When those days come, don’t feel sad. Just be with me and understand me while I get to the end of my life with love. I’ll cherish and thank you for the gift of time and joy we shared.
With a big smile and the huge love I’ve always had for you, I just want to say, I love you... my darling daughter.
