I just read somewhere that people try their
best to expose what is wrong with you because they can't handle what is right
with you. I find this to be a little unnecessary. Fault finding is an
aberration of the mind which tells you that you are not good enough. From your
perspective, you might feel good but believe me, it is temporary and the
aftermath of feeling guilty and not so good is uncomfortable.
In society, it is normal to speak behind
the back of a person because you don't want people to know that you are capable
of slander. But slander it is, however much you might try to cloak it. It is
your negativity that gets aired and people are quick to sense this as well, although
they may not say it to your face.
Many people say that they are just giving
tit for tat. But that doesn't stop you from also being in the wrong.
Life is meant to move from strength to strength,
to become better and better, more and more compassionate and generous. Instead
of pointing out the wrong because you can't handle the right, you can
appreciate the right of another and correct the wrong within you. And this
applies to all of us.
