“You have power over your mind — not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”Marcus Aurelius
In a traffic jam, you can't control the situation, but you can control how you react to it. By accepting this lack of control and staying calm, you'll feel more empowered to handle the situation with patience and grace, finding inner strength despite external chaos.
Whoever is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.
Proverbs 16:32 highlights the importance of self-control and inner strength, aligning with the idea that true strength comes from mastering one's own mind and reactions. This verse reinforces the concept that finding strength in difficult circumstances is a testament to one's character and courage.
