Or, how to
overcome my own issues to accept people as they are, and get over myself...
One of my
mentors has told me I have to get away from all of the negative people in my
life. I have done so with one person. I have a relative of mine I need to keep
close to me for obvious reasons. This person is the most negative, energy
sucking caustic people I have ever met. Yet I must remain close to them.
One of my
other mentors is helping me deal with this person. My mentor is encouraging me
to look at the negative person, (Hey, let`s call that person “M”) in a light
that will allow me to look into their past experiences.
“M” is a
very negative energy in my life. I am doing my very best to look past the
negativity to see WHY this person is why they are. And I think I know some of
the reasons....
Unfortunately,
I am bringing my past experiences with “M”. I am not going to tell you what
transgressions I fell have happened to me as my memory will change the actual
events. And really, those events are unimportant.
I truly
believe in what I am about to write. I honestly believe that the things that
most piss me off that “M” does are things I do that piss me off...
I hope I
have this name right... Dr. Roger Berkman said a couple of things I truly
believe in. “We are we see others”, and he also said, “We are least tolerant
of those negative traits in others that we ourselves possess.”
Crap.
You know
what that means? What pisses me off the most about other people is what pisses
myself off about myself. So, when the person who interrupts conversations so
much bothers you.... that means YOU interrupt a lot!!!!!!!
So next time
you are looking at someone and saying to yourself, “Man, I hate it when she
does that!” Reflect on yourself and try to see where you do “that”, and stop
doing it. All of a sudden, it won’t bother you when someone else does it....
Give it a try and see where it leads you. Maybe a more peaceful existence...
