Once you discover the difference between WHAT MATTERS and what doesn't life gets a whole lot easier. Are you there yet?

In the immortal words of Al Pacino in the Godfather, "Just when I think I am out, they pull me right back in." 

No one is immune from that instant karma thing.  Meaning, if you get too spiritually uppity, the Universe will answer you and humble you once more.  

One of the cruelties of life is, once you've gotten it figured out, you're too old to do anything about it. I could really kick myself for all the times that I got wound up, upset and out of sorts about stuff that didn't amount to a hill of beans in the long run. The impetuosity of youth burns a lot of energy for the superficial.
