She's an old lady and she's ill. Whatever she says to you, it's your job not to let her make you mad "Think about this; if we let someone else make us mad, we give them a power over us. Do you know someone who makes you mad? What can you do so that no matter what the person says, you will not lot him/her have the power to make you angry?

Sure I know many people that have made me angry. If I always had my game on, I'd realize that the only person that can affect my feelings is myself. Back in grade 5, this kid called me stick boy. This made me very upset and scared. I have no idea why I was scared, hey I was a sensitive kid! Now if I were all Zen about it I would have realized the bully had his own problems and only I was making myself upset. Oh well, I was only a kid!
