Do you have someone who hates you? We don't have to accept bad behavior, and actions should have consequences (there's a big difference between justice and revenge), but instead of returning their hatred (which only hurts you), try something different. It's not "new." It goes back thousands of years as taught by all of the Masters. And, of course, it's in the Bible. Try it. You might be surprised at what happens. Pick your biggest detractor...or worst enemy...or one who most recently became furious at you...and visualize them surrounded in pink light. It works from any distance and even if you don't really know what they look like. Sometimes I will visualize the pink light coming from my Heart Chakra and engulfing them. While doing this, mentally say: "I wish for you only goodness. I send you Love and goodwill. May you heal through Love." You don't have to say it aloud. And you can do it anytime you have some spare seconds. By Uni-versal Law, it cannot fail to work. They will be Blessed. Their anger/rage will dissipate, and since you refuse to meet it with more of your own, it will calm. They will think clearly. You will do them a favor. And you will do yourself a favor. Try it. ------------------ "Cooking is like love. It should be entered into with abandon or not at all." Harriet Van Horne IP: Logged |

Thanks Randall... I often practice this, good reminder. I remember how hard it was to do when I first started. ------------------ “It’s an interesting thing. Seeing Kuan Yin relating to a flower so intently. She's not just looking at it; she's interacting with it…I’m seeing how the act of relating to a flower appears to be so simple. Yet, it takes a tremendous amount of courage to make such a “simple” act important. Now, the lotus is floating away.” IP: Logged |

I think the key is just to Bless everyone. Like my Signature says, you have to be very careful what you wish for someone else.------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

I have someone who hates me, and it makes me sad.She was a friend for a very long time. Then, I had a falling out with my SO, and they started dating. Within a couple months, it was clear it wasn't working out for him, and he and I started to see each other again. She got pretty hurt about it, which I do feel bad about, but she admitted that when she went after him, she knew he and I were not through. Its hard to cut loose someone you've known for over half your life. But, I had to do it. She says awful things about me, which of course I hear about. I have sent her a couple emails wishing her well... that didn't go over, even though I was being sincere. I do bless her, consistantly, and wish for her to find somebody. Still, it's a difficult thing... Anyway, that's my story. IP: Logged |

That's sad. It wasn't your fault, though. I don't think should have dated him. But maybe one day she will meet someone and be happy and heal from this. IP: Logged |

It's not easy.*EDit:This morning I just had a good cry and went on.I was sad because it feels like my faith is being tested and the more I seem to think that I'm moving past it all, everytime it's something else from the same people. All we can do is keep sending blessings to those that wish us harm. IP: Logged |

Bless Them That Curse YouYes I have been taught by some wise ones that first one must discover the why and what of the hurt before the who to Bless. Contemplate what is hurting you, why it is hurting you until you can see the situtation clearly. You will quietly notice the "who" no longer matters, they lost their power to hurt you. Bless them and send the hurt to the ethers. Simple, but not easy. Well worth the personal healing. ------------------ What we do for ourselves dies with us.

I told you both privately, that if it wasn't true, and that you'd been set up, too - that i was sorry for that. It had occurred to me that you might have fallen prey to the same person that I did. I was angry at first, but I was honest when I said that I wish you well. I don't curse either of you.

This is what happened with me. I found what it was that was hurting me - really hurting me about this particular situation - and it was that whoever it was, they pinpointed me as the weak link, they targeted me when I was already having a rough time of it, and almost succeeded in losing me my friends, as well as my feeling safe here or at Facebook. Whoever it was, didn't care a whit about my mental health, they didn't care that they were hurting me, as well as hurting friends of mine in other ways - they only cared to cause trouble and protect themselves. Whoever it is, I feel sad for them, and I will bless them. It has felt for a while now, as though my faith is being tested - I'm tired of it. IP: Logged |

Wow, I remember a verse...here it is translated in English. quote: Look, someone is knocking at the door A beggar it is, for alms, nothing more Give you may but don't speak in hate God might come in any guise to implore.
------------------ Ask Me anything. Anything. I will contrive to bring you the answer. The whole universe will I use to do this. So be on the lookout. This book is far from My only tool. You may ask a question, then put this book down. But watch. Listen. The words to the next song you hear. The information in the next article you read. The story line of the next movie you watch. The chance utterance of the next person you meet. Or the whisper of the next river, the next ocean, the next breeze that caresses your ear—all these devices are Mine; all these avenues are open to Me. I will speak to you if you will listen. I will come to you if you will invite Me. I will show you then that I have always been there. All ways. ♥ IP: Logged |

Dear Teasel I am no paragon of anything. I am not putting myself up as that lest anyone find my flaws,of which there are many. I THINK that what you said did happen to you.One person targeted you as a weak link. This is just my intuition. I know nothing of the situation,facts wise. ------------------ Jesus never put his trust in man cuz he knew what was in man.

IF that happened and I think it did, you must choose the positive way for yourself. There is a time to let go.There is a time to kick in the groin and NEVER let someone near you,again. You may forgive the person you needed to kick in the groin but that does not mean you let them near you to do it AGAIN. However,in your situation,I think you need to put this one sick person in a box, far away from you. This one person played on your weaknesses and used you based on that. This is the lowest of the low in human nature but it happens. I had my own similar situation,here. I had to choose what to do with what I was given. Discernment and wisdom are the keys. YOU will prevail if you order your life in a way that that BAD person is in a box---far away from you. PS This is my opinion ,only.Opinions are like noses.Everyone has one and they usually have a few holes in them. I DO NOT CARE TO DEBATE MINE. ------------------ Jesus never put his trust in man cuz he knew what was in man. He who controls his Spirit is greater than he who controls a city Proverbs IP: Logged |

This is my view of restoration of a relationship,based on the Bible. If someone violates you, they must OWN what they did . They cannot make some lame excuse like they were tired. They have to own what they did to you and how they did it. They do not blame you AS they own it. They own it all, as it happened.------------------ Jesus never put his trust in man cuz he knew what was in man.

After they do that,you forgive them BUT they must earn your trust,after that, by how they act. Trust must be earned by the person who violated you. It is not given,freely,nor should it be. That would be stupid.------------------ Jesus never put his trust in man cuz he knew what was in man. He who controls his Spirit is greater than he who controls a city Proverbs IP: Logged |
