The moment we
have a negative experience we get stuck in
what was done and how it was done and how it
was done to us. We must learn
not to take life so personally. People
are not really out to get us. Events
are not waiting to befall us. We
are all moving to get where we want to be.
As a result, we will sometimes step on each
others' toes. When we find
ourselves in a conflict or confrontation we
must know how to love ourselves out of it.
Love means opening our hearts and
minds to our best, regardless of what is
going on. Love means not attacking
but supporting, not defending but
seeking clarity. Love means knowing
that, in the end, we will all be okay
even if it means we have to give up a little
of something. Let us learn to give up
anger and fear by replacing those things
with love.
