weird week

it has been a weird week at my place of employment..first there was a guy who went berserk yelling and screaming.. everyone in the store was watching him... then you hear police sirens.. it took 6 cops and a taser gun to get this guy out of the store..Then a lady comes in store covered in blood. mentally something was off about this one. she tried on clothes and no one wanted to approach her.. they just kept an eye on her. any clothes she got blood on they had to haz-mat them. she bought a few things then left.. then yesterday they say( we didnt see it) a guy was wielding around a knife in the store..not sure how that one ended. then in the parking lot yesterday a guy with his girlfriend were walking through the parking lot and his other girlfriend showed and the two women went at it.. at one point the both jump in the car and continue fighting in the car locking the boyfriend out of the car..didnt get to see how that one ended my lunch break was over..man this store gets all the looney's...lol..

Desiderata - Max Ehrman

Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others,
even to the dull and ignorant; they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter,
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.

Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs,
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals,
and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment
it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be.
And whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace with your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

Max Ehrman
