Don’t let little things take up too much room in your heart, or you’ll spend your entire life being annoyed and upset. – Karen Salmansohn

I don’t know if I’m the only person that does this, but judging from all the memes I see, I’m not.  I’ll remember something dumb that happened ten years ago, and flip out all over again about it.  Really, I just need to let it go and move on.  What’s happened has happened and there is no point in stressing out over it.

The quote says not to let the little things take up too much room in your heart, but I’d add to that and say don’t let them take up too much room in your head either. When you let the little things take up residence inside of you, it’s the start of a giant recipe for disaster.  Let it go and move on.  If you don’t they fester and stew and just totally bring you down and ruin your outlook.

Life is too short for that.  Seriously!  Do you want to spend time stewing, fretting and being annoyed and upset, or do you want to enjoy life?  Personally, I’m all about the enjoyment.  When I get into those moods where I’m remembering every dumb thing I ever said or did, or every perceived (or real) insult or slight, I try really hard to let it go and move on.  I like my life and I want to enjoy it.  I don’t want to hang on to negativity.  I don’t think you should either.
