Hashem will help you ride the meandering waves of life.
Bear in mind, today is the first day of the rest of your life!

Implement small acts of
goodness conscientiously!
Plant seeds of Torah
values passionately!

Hence, how futile it is
to kick up a fuss!

We can’t prevent the bus from breaking down.
The plane is late which can turn our whole schedule around.
![Page 7: Rediscover calm by esther gross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042906/58ac1f5b1a28abf03a8b4d4f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
You cannot avert a red light.
However, you can decide, whether you’ll halt or flight.
![Page 8: Rediscover calm by esther gross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042906/58ac1f5b1a28abf03a8b4d4f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
You can’t stop the crystal raindrops falling from the sky;
Then again, an umbrella certainly can keep you cozy and dry!

Let’s imagine, you’re having breakfast, When a child accidently knocks over
the coffee hard and fast!
![Page 11: Rediscover calm by esther gross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042906/58ac1f5b1a28abf03a8b4d4f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Woe, your jacket got all splattered up!
You’re just about ready to snap, crackle and pop!
![Page 12: Rediscover calm by esther gross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042906/58ac1f5b1a28abf03a8b4d4f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Obviously, you had no control over what just has occurred;
Or your first reaction which seemed so blurred!
However, the ball was in your court; If you chose an unruffled
or impulsive retort!
![Page 13: Rediscover calm by esther gross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042906/58ac1f5b1a28abf03a8b4d4f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Let’s say you snap at your child for knocking the cup over… With your fury you just succeeded in washing her over!
![Page 14: Rediscover calm by esther gross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042906/58ac1f5b1a28abf03a8b4d4f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Miss her bus, and be totally distressed!
She might break out in a cold sweat;
![Page 15: Rediscover calm by esther gross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042906/58ac1f5b1a28abf03a8b4d4f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
You manage to get her to school; you’re winding down….
Whilst your child may possibly be displaying a frown…
![Page 16: Rediscover calm by esther gross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042906/58ac1f5b1a28abf03a8b4d4f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Domino effect: to make matters worse! You can’t seem to be finding your purse!
Now, you’re really upset!
![Page 17: Rediscover calm by esther gross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042906/58ac1f5b1a28abf03a8b4d4f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Why did you have such a tough day?
A) Did the coffee cause it? B) Did a child cause it?
C) Did the school bus cause it? D) Did your dentist cause it?
![Page 18: Rediscover calm by esther gross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042906/58ac1f5b1a28abf03a8b4d4f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Between you & me, You did not invite
this catastrophe, However, how you
“chose” to react to this event;
Triggered such a mind boggling descent!
![Page 19: Rediscover calm by esther gross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042906/58ac1f5b1a28abf03a8b4d4f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Suppose, you’re having breakfast,
When a child accidently knocks over the coffee hard and fast!
![Page 20: Rediscover calm by esther gross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042906/58ac1f5b1a28abf03a8b4d4f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
You pause for a cause, and calmly say: “Oops, let’s grab a towel to wipe the mess away,
This is not going to ruin our entire day!”
![Page 21: Rediscover calm by esther gross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042906/58ac1f5b1a28abf03a8b4d4f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Your child lends a hand without a sigh… She gets on the bus and waves her goodbye!
![Page 22: Rediscover calm by esther gross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042906/58ac1f5b1a28abf03a8b4d4f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Triumphantly you breathe a sigh of reprieve,
For staying the course, you did achieve.
![Page 23: Rediscover calm by esther gross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042906/58ac1f5b1a28abf03a8b4d4f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
