Richard Rohr's question for the day is one that I suspect that many of us ask ourselves daily.

Every five years our American sophistication gets higher and higher.  I need this to be happy, and then I need that to be happy, and this no longer makes me happy.  Once I get on that course, I can never go back; whereas, the saints need less and less to make them happy.  Their contentment is from within.  They’re not expecting the future to be any different than it is right now; because how one does anything is how one does everything.

If I let it upset me now, it will also upset me again tomorrow.  I would do best to change my perception now, and let go of my right to my grievance.  Someone told me recently that is what forgiveness is: letting go of my right to be upset!   “I deserve this anger,” the ego says to itself.
