I recently listened to Joel Osteen on Family TV and he was talking about how we allow "five-minute problems" control our lives. He suggested that before you get worried about a problem, you need to ask yourself whether it is a 5-min, 5-Hr, 5-day, 5-mon, or 5-yr problem.
So, the matatu blocks your entry int a roundabout; don't get stressed about it. That is a problem that will be over in 5min [you will enter the junction].
You might get to work late, but hey, that problem will be over by the end of the day!
If you shove your way in front of the matatu; you will get bumped and the 5-min problem will become a 5-hr one as you try to sort out the mess and get your car towed away....and then it becomes a 5-day problem in the garage....and a 5wk problem as you try to get insurance claims paid!
Instead: I choose to listen to some good music and read the Draft Constitution! Three weeks ago I brought out an old cassette recording that I made way back in 1988. It is so refreshing that I am looking forward to traffic jams every time I am on the road!!
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.
