How often do you let other people’s nonsense (不理智) change your mood? Do you let a bad driver impolite waiter rude boss or an insensitive employee 31 your day?

One day I was in a taxi and we headed 32 the airport. We were driving in the 33 lane (车道) when suddenly a black car drove out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver 34 hard on his brakes (刹车) and at the very last moment our car stopped and 35 the other car by just inches！The driver of the other car the guy who almost caused a big accident looked around and started 36 at us.

My taxi driver just 37 and waved at the guy. And I mean he was 38 so I said “Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!” This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call “The Law of the Garbage (垃圾) Truck”.

He said “Many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage 39 and disappointment. As their garbage 40 up they need a place to dump it and sometimes they’ll dump it on 41 . Don’t take it personally; just smile wave wish them well and move on. Believe me. You’ll be 42 .”

So I started thinking how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and 43 it to other people at work at home or on the street? It was then that I said “I don’t want their garbage and I’m not going to spread it anymore.”

Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with 44 . The mark of your success is how quickly you can refocus (重新关注) on what’s 45 in your life. A study shows that 46 you remember bad things more often than good things in your life you’ll think of bad things more 47 . So love the people who treat you right. Ignore the ones who don’t. Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you 48 it! If you follow “The Law of the Garbage Truck” you take back control of your life. You make room for the good by 49 go of the bad.

Have a Garbage-Free Day! Have a marvelous garbage-free day! The seeds you plant today 50 the harvest you gain tomorrow.
