Hi Sheila,
In an earlier post, I mentioned:
"...if it's something wrong that I really did, I can understand their being
mad... but when I've simply been misunderstood, and I have clearly explained
the errors in their perception -- and they STILL remain upset with me --
yes, I know it's a wonderful opportunity for me to practice advanced
forgiveness, and let it go, and forgive what never happened... And I do! I
really do, more and more all the time.... Still, there seems to be a part
of me that just wants to know, "why?"...
And then, you wrote:
2. Don't Take Anything Personally
Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a
projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are
immune to the opinions and actions of others; you won't be the victim
of needless suffering.
What a PERFECT reminder! Thank you, Sheila...
...and to Karen, who said:
"You people are sweethearts..."
Hey; it takes some to know some....
Hugs to all,
Gene
