Page 20-There were some times when I acted out of anger and spite. That led me to misery because when the anger and spite had vanished, I was left with guilt and sadness knowing that I had hurt someone I cared for and love. The last thing you want to see if people suffering, especially when you have a close connection with that person.
As I begin to mature, I realized that I felt great when I did things out of charity, sincerely. The more love I received, the more love I could spread. But I had to receive it first. You know the saying: you can’t serve from an empty place (or something like that).
Anyway, like I was saying, I wanted something different so I had to do something different. Don’t get me wrong, “getting even” feels amazing in the beginning, but at the end, to see a love one hurting, paining or suffering because of you...that’s no good result for no one involved...unless of course... never mind, I don’t even wanna think like that. I’m learning to control my thoughts too. Because our thoughts eventually become our actions. And at this point, my focus and purpose is clear. Everything I do, I’ll do it in love. At least, that’s one of my main goals. Yep, I said EVERYTHING!
