“Ah, happily do we live without hate amongst the hateful; amidst hateful men we dwell unhating.”
~The Dhammapada
With all the fighting that’s going on – war and political/social battles, we should all remember to cultivate peace and that individuals who hurt us do so because of a personal problem of their own. Therefore we should not fuel the fire, rather walk in peace and extinguish the flames. Getting angry at someone gives them the power they wanted to begin with and ends up causing you more harm. Instead of getting upset and waste my day being angry, I’d rather go rollerblading or hiking or scuba diving. It’s sunny weather – go out and enjoy the day or read a good book!
