~:[CH13 - Day 328]:~ In a Corner
Sometimes, you get forgotten. After driving to Vegas and enjoying a delicious lunch, we rested and headed to dinner at one of our favorite spots, Lotus of Siam. Normally, aside from the wait, most things are good, but today was not. Our 7:30 reservation led to a seat 25 minutes later. We promptly ordered our appetizers, but after 25 minutes, nobody came back to take our order (although someone else delivered our appetizer). Maybe we had been forgotten back in the corner as the table near us started ordering about 20 minutes before us despite arriving later, however, we still ended up eating. I wasn't left with a good impression as I was fuming, still yet, I enjoyed my food and still went on with my day. In life, we have a choice to allow others to control our narrative or to take a moment when we're in the corner and still make the most of it. Forgetting how we were wronged once we voice our points allows us to move on and not let that moment hold us back. We may have wanted better service, more attention to detail with the food or simply someone to check in on us, but we can no longer do anything about it. Fight to correct what you can, but then remove yourself from that corner and move on. It's right that you should still be upset, but don't allow yourself to be trapped in the corner of life.
