If we find ourselves with a constant mirage of small troubles, we are raking up a never ending scattering of dead leaves from a weed instead of pulling the weed out by its roots. Our small troubles will take care of themselves if we allow them to.
Small things are truly no trouble at all.
They are described as troubles because we have decided to see them separate, alien and unhelpful to our life. The next time your partner leaves the cap off the tooth paste, or someone cuts in front of you on the road, look to see how long this diverts you focus and attention. Allow that moment to simply be, without closing down your thoughts and feelings. Refrain from bringing judgment upon the situation. It only takes but a bit of letting go, a pinch of self introspection and bringing what you learn from those practices into your daily life.
