I Had a Eureka Moment!

There is a certain receptionist that I have to deal with every three to four months.  I never have a good experience dealing with this person, and she always puts me in a bad mood.  Leaving this place, I was reflecting on why I felt this way about this person. What was it about her that I didn't like.  I could only think of one other person who makes me feel this way.  I am usually very friendly and get on well with everyone.  I speak to people in elevators, grocery lines, on the street...what about this receptionist set me off?  Then it came to me!  I didn't like the way I felt about myself when I was around her.  She brought out the worst in ME!  I really hated feeling this way.  Think about the people who are your friends...the people you like to be around...those who make your face light up when you see them.  Don't you feel good about yourself when you are with them?  They make you feel special.  You know that they are glad to see you and that they care about you.  Strangers on the street who give you a smile can make your day!  This receptionist does just the opposite for me.  Maybe it is not her fault.  Maybe it is mine.  I don't know.  I just know that I don't like the way I feel inside when I am around her. She obviously doesn't light up when she sees me.  I only maybe run into her three or four times a year...and if I am lucky a different receptionist will wait on me. And I thank God that the majority of people in my life make my days bright and beautiful!
