Last night I had the opportunity to get upset over something someone close to me said. I felt my ego rise, and recognized it. "There you are ego." I said to myself. "You're going to be okay. This will pass." And as I felt it rise, I watched it and gave comfort. "This wont last long." I thought. "Watch it, and let it go." I reminded my ego. And over a few minutes, I felt calm. I recognized the intent of the other person, looking past their words, and I practiced empathy. Be kind to yourself.
