I had just finished fueling Rufus and was climbing in behind the wheel when I looked over at the vehicle next to me. A lady was smoking a cigarette while pumping gas...and flicking the ashes on the ground.

Obviously I yelled at her & told her she's either illiterate or ignorant, but when she blows herself and someone else up...it doesn't matter which one was the reason but that I didn't appreciate her putting me at risk!

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.
