This is an conflicting affirmation for me. I am definitely in control of what I think and feel. And, I am know my emotions are simply a reaction to my thoughts, yet, this last week, I have been pissed and my attitude skewed because someone who owes me money for work completed, refuses to do so on a daily basis. While I'm in control of my thoughts & feelings, I allow myself to feel the agitation and upset over not paying me after telling me it would be taken care of because it's real. 

To deny it feels like I'm lying to myself. 

However, I refuse to linger in the upset. As it is, I feel it and let it go .. some days, minute by minute.

While this may seem insignificant to some, it is a big deal .. for me, it's the lack of integrity that triggers me...

I honestly do my best to shift any harsh thoughts into something positive, yet it's difficult in this situation. While my MO is to 'take the high road', I'm pissed because the honor and respect is not reciprocated. 

If someone has a suggestion for how to move past this issue & not let it 'ruin' my day, I'd sincerely appreciate it. 

I think I've found the key and truly open to other insights ...
