Actually, my own frustration was the subject of my simple Christianity study. Did I tell you i compile a list of “Thank God …”
when I feel frustrated with what I get in life? Again, I have done this more than 10 times. I guess this is how I manage to
“incorporate a bit of Christianity teaching into modern life”

I feel anger and impatience is better treated with Buddhism than Christianity. If you ask me to pick the most effective and valuable
medicine for the modern man, I'm a bit biased in favor of Buddhism, as compared to Christianity, Confucius, laughter/humor,
optimism, “positive attitude” and other ideas of American popular psychology. I realize I just don't have the time (therefore
biased) to study each of these schools of thoughts. It's possible that one of these works better (than Buddha's teaching) for you in
some special context.

So How do you apply any of the ancient teachings on “greed” or “peer comparison”? Give some real stories if you can.
