When that problem pops up, that irritation emerges,
you put on a big frown. Aaaaaaakkk !
Here’s an idea to try, here’s the words to say,
“Hello, Opportunity.”
Yes, at this point you are in charge of your feelings.
Do you let frustration or anger take charge ?
Or, do you tell yourself,
“OK, kiddo, let’s see what good idea you find.”
Learning something is not always fun to do.
It may interfere with something
you’re already involved with,
maybe you’re even having fun doing that.
But success means you’ve done something
good and right and acceptable.
Maybe it was actually simple,
or might have taken some determination and time.
Thinking, considering what's happening now,
even praying, "Oh, I need wisdom and help ! "
That's a challenge that's good for you.
Every person in life has these Opportunities.
