We ended up leaving an hour later than planned, so of course, tensions were high—even though it wasn’t anyone’s fault. In my flesh, I felt frustrated, which made me easily irritated and critical. I wanted to pick a fight, but instead, I paused, validated how I was feeling, reminded myself it wasn’t anyone’s fault, and said a prayer asking for peace, patience, kindness, and gentleness. I let it go—and so far, we’re having a great trip.
