4. Emotional Alchemist

As he walked away, a cigarette already hanging from his scowling mouth, I thought about something a friend often said.  ‘God must love jackasses ‘cause he made so many of ‘em.  Might as well learn to live with ‘em and laugh at ‘em.’  My friend was particularly good at not letting hostile, rude people bother him. His knack for turning their anger into humor was a skill I thought I’d need  in the coming days.

Today I will try to turn anger into humor.
