Have you ever been confused about life? The people and the world in general? Why some people just choose to be the jerk offs that they are and take great pleasure in hurting and using? I've begun questioning myself on what I am supposed to teach my three year old, "treat people the way you'd like to be treated" is a set up for disaster in this world. You will ultimately be taken advantage of and taken for granted.
I suppose my sensitivity is both a gift and a curse. The fact that I have to beat enemies (the dozen random people that cannot stand me for no apparent reason)off with a stick confuses me. What is it about me that rubs people the wrong way? Even here? I don't know, maybe that's some sort of "girl thing" seeing that most of these people are women.
If I decide to be myself, I get screwed.
I cover it up with alot of decoration, but I suppose all this is is that I'm a scared little girl afraid of the boobie traps of this weird life.
In the book Life on the Other Side by Sylvia Brown, she states that we choose everything that happens in each lifetime.
With the extremist/perfectionist that I am, it sounds about right. Leave it up to me to want to learn ten lessons at once.If I give my doc this lil rant, he'll merely consider adding to my humble little couple of psych meds. So I save it for my LL family, for the people who tolerate me atleast  IP: Logged |

Wow!
I still say treat people, as you would want to be treated is the best motto
and the way I have raised my girls, it's easier with girls I'm surehow we deal with the pain, and the offense, is the real test, let it roll off your back, and don't allow yourself to give it any energy
very hard to do
it takes practice, I'm still working on it
hehe

"Have you ever been confused about life?"
Absolutely!
As for treating people I love a different take on the rule. "Treat people the way THEY want to be treated". I think it makes more sense.
I'm a newbie and I don't know anyone that well but I noticed your posts. And I love your name, it's like reflection in the mirror (with the twist) "le-o-el-f"  IP: Logged |

LoL lotusheartstone, you are something  , sneaking into my head, you
It is different for girls than guys I think, but the letting it roll off your back thing. God it's so much easier said than done, I wish, you know?Svetlana,
How are you? Thanks for your compliment on my name although I really don't quite feel like an elf and don't really think I ever was.
Treat people the way THEY want to be treated.
That speaks volumes, you have no idea.
Thanks  IP: Logged |

I'm always confused about life-it's a mystery.
There will always be people out there who hurt and take advantage of other people.
You just gotta put up a shield and protect yourself. But at the same time, be true to yourself.

Great advice LotusHeart....we're all learning how to focus our minds on what will make us happy, and to ignore what lowers our energyIP: Logged |

Just keep on doing what you're doing. It's definitely a challenge these days when bad behaviour seems to be championed and encouraged more than good...I feel it's also necessary to teach our children to stand up for themselves, speak their truth, no matter how much their voice shakes...self respect is more important than worrying about whether our actions will offend or hurt someone else, because my belief is that if we do everything with the best intention, following our heart, we can't go wrong and certainly cannot make everyone happy (it's their issue, not ours to worry about), so long as you're not purposely trying to hurt/insult others. Light will always prevail over darkness... A lot of us here have higher, purer energy than some 'out there', and one thing I know, is people with a lower, muckier energy level can sense our cleaner, higher vibration, people CAN sense our energy and are jealous, secretly asking themselves: How can I be more like them? I want what they have!. So, their only recourse is to attack, whatever way they can. Understand this, send them silent blessings, they are human afterall, and go about what you have always been doing. There are a few people I work with who are like this but I just go about my own business, knowing what they're about... Some days, it's tough to always let it roll off and keep smiling...we're continuously working hard at getting where we are now...once people realize though, that what they're doing isn't working, they'll give up and move on to someone they can make mincemeat out of...I very much agree, don't give it any energy and can be very hard not to do when what you would rather do is get some satisfaction from slapping them... hugs, kisses and blessings!
