Life is inconvenient. It has a way of getting in the way of my well planned and unplanned days. A phone call is how life typically announces itself. Regardless of the ring tone, a noise where there was none cuts into peace--even if that peace was only tolerance of some other inconvenience.
When I am at my best, I live life aware of the difference between inconvenience and problem. When I'm stuck in traffic its an inconvenience for me. The people involved in the wreck which snarled the traffic have problems. My expectations are directly related to my annoyance with inconveniences. I have the ability to choose my attitude toward inconveniences. Problems may trigger emotions which require attention, but my emotions can be checked against my intentions when inconveniences arise. I know the difference. I've had a problem and I've been inconvenienced.
