No Matter What!

Mornin',
Today, let us step forth from our dwelling with the mindset of keeping our joy and peace no matter what! There may be plenty of people who try to steal these gifts from you today. It may come in the form of what someone says, does, or does not do. Some people are simply out doing what they think they need to do in the course of the day while unaware of the dysfunctional behavior they reveal. They know not what they do and are usually apologetic when confronted on something they say or do. Their mission is not to set out and ruin other peoples' lives on a daily basis. The may not be as spiritually advanced as you and may be willing to change so they can improve relations with you and others. These people are typically genuine.

Then there are those individuals who are angry and discontent with life. These are the people who are constantly confronting others just to agitate them. They oftentimes know the root of their anger and hatred but refuse to confront the dysfunction in their lives. They may have had an abusive childhood, be prejudice, struggle with drug and alcohol addiction, or a myriad of other issues that pitted them against society. These are also the people who are not to be confronted. It is best to leave any confrontations up to the authorities.

Resentment, anger, and all other negative emotions are not to be taken lightly. There are plenty of instances when someone confronts an angry man about his behavior only to get seriously injured or kill in doing so. Be careful! Usually, the best thing to do to these people is not avoid them but rather let your joy and happiness shine. This way, you may still get negative feedback from the angry man. Chances are that you may be the only joy he experiences that day. We never know who we are going to uplift as we travel through life today. If you refuse to let anybody steal your joy and happiness, there will always be a ready supply for the aforementioned type.

Peace
