Those who make us feel bad

It is inevitable that we meet some people who make us feel good, and some who make us feel bad. The latter always have a similar effect on us, they make us want to "show" them what we're made of. They make us feel either violent or incapable. It's a great thing if one really puts aside one's feelings: It makes us want to do better, be more inspired, and passionate to create a situation where we feel superior than those who make us feel inferior. In effect we want to do to them what they do to us.


Of course that's a good thing, so as long as we don't inflict pain, create a chain reaction that doesn't really have an end.


It's generally better to have a win-win situation: Forgive. Let time "show" them. Just live and be merry and take our minds off such negative thinking. If you don't let them bother you, they won't. To just not cross paths, and forgive would be so much better, since we can use our energies elsewhere...

When we think about their lives and what they must have gone through, to make others feel so inferior and incapable, it gives our own lives perspective. It makes us stronger in knowing that at least we aren't as weak as they are. The strong make others stronger, the weak make others weaker. Just as happiness makes others happier, and sadness compounds itself.

That's the amazing thing about this world: what you worry about, becomes your problem. Even if one is in the most dire straits, if one takes his mind off the immediate situation, what he focuses on becomes more important...


Lastly, when people say focus in the "present", I didn't quite really understand what they meant until I realised the above.

---
For now, Peace and Love everybody. To those who spread happiness, thank you, to the rest, I hope you can overcome your problems to make our world a little lighter.
