unflappable

that's how the little middle duck was... in the midst of flapping duck wings, he remained unflappable - doing his own thing which happened to be just standing there on the bit of ice that was still on the lake... while the rest of the ducks and geese scattered towards some folks who were throwing bread.

it gave me pause about how riled up i may get day-to-day... do i allow others to affect me or do i let things roll off my back? mostly, i'm pretty easy going... until i'm behind the wheel of my car and people refuse to use their turn signals or dart in and out of traffic... that will do me in - and i find myself kind of yelling at them... sometimes like a lunatic... but on my own behalf, i think a lot of it has to do with the fact of my accident last year and continuing to deal with the repercussions...

overall, though, a good rule of thumb - remain unflappable

happy day.....
