The uplifting power of bad...

Whoever tries to annoy you intentionally or otherwise is trying to hurt and control you with your own anger..

Respond only with patience and whatever thought or deed that shall come forth out of your center of calmness..

Be glad when people are rude or unkind, for here is your opportunity to overlook..

If there were no danger, you could not possess courage..

If there were no hate or temptation, how could you develop love and virtue?..

These people are giving you the opportunity to accomplish now what you failed to do before..

The situation which once made you upset,guilty, and afraid will become the very things to give you happiness and well-being from now on....

.....As Jesus said:" forgive our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us"...
