I do not know where to begin. Sometimes I feel that I cannot go in public with out running into an asshole. If I am thinking this way am I asking for it? Maybe but the fact is that they are walkways out there it is how we approach the situation.
I didn’t do so well recently. If I am to be a teacher of Happiness how do I go against what I teach and live? We are not perfect and at times we will be weak and fall prey to these instigators. There is always someone opposite of you and there will be a clash or a contradiction.
Handling this contradiction or opposite energy can be approached many ways. If you know you are in the opposite direction to the positive then you need to maintain the course. Do not look back. Be strong. Use your power. Love. Be calm and composed. Funny as I type this I have to admit I did the opposite. I instigated someone who disagrees with me and then I proceeded to look for an altercation. For Christ sake I am 51 behaving irrationally. I regressed to the mindset that we see reported on the new every night.
My ego was insulted and I had to stand my ground. This is a bullshit fear. A fear of being embarrassed? A fear of being humiliated or humbled? Would that have been so bad?
In my admission I see a light and a flickering hope. One I learned a lesson in forgiveness and humility and the gentleman learned bullying and intimidation is not appropriate. I say this without justification just an observation.
