“Don’t let the behavior of others destroy your inner peace.”
Dalai Lama
The opinion of others regarding me personally held me captive most of my life. It agonized me to point of obsession where I was trying to figure out why the person was behaving in this manner. It made me so sad.
As I look back at my life, I wonder what possessed me to even care about what others thought of me. I've dealt with this kind of stuff so much that now I could care less and it has become easy to take these people out of my life.
Now I only want to know why and what their problem is. What makes them think they can act this way toward another person? It is total rudeness!
It has never been in my nature to lash out and defend myself, I would just ignore it and wish the behavior would go away. Now I whisk the behavior out of my life . . . and I still won't confront. It is a mystery to me that I don't confront.
They no longer steal my inner peace!
