I hope to become -- or hope to increase the amount that I can become -- a person who does not just react and get triggered when confronted with people I think are off the beam. I want to just sit and watch them and think my thoughts about what is happening, and what is the meaning of the things that they do which trigger me. Try to understand what people are doing, rather than get triggered by them. When I can do it, I find the (alleged) insights delightful.
