Way to focus on what's important

So recently, my aunt died. I went to the funeral, and the wake afterwards. At this wake, I was using the mens bathroom, like I have been doing for near on a year now. Nobody said anything to me at the time, but apparently a bunch of people have told my sister that they thought I shouldn't have been in there and I was being really inappropriate and making them uncomfortable and blah blah.

What's funny is, it seems like I was the only one following the unwritten rules of the mens room - I have no idea who was in there with me, I didn't look, not even a sideways glance. If everyone else had done that, they wouldn't have even noticed me.

I go to pay my respects to a family member and get ->-bleeped-<- over which bathroom I'm using, how actually ridiculous

Odd thing about folks. Most often their focus is on their issues  :P Not what's actually important at the time  :P

I often have to remind folks as to the reason I called in the first place  :P

At my nephew's reception, there seemed to be much more focus on me than the bride and groom  :P

The main things to remember in life are Love, Kindness, Understanding and Respect - Always make forward progress

Superficial fanny kissing friends are a dime a dozen, a TRUE FRIEND however is PRICELESS
