ONE OF THE ESSENTIAL PARTS OF MEDITATION is to look at the good side of things, to look at the good side of people, to look at the good side of incidents, so that you are surrounded with everything good. SURROUNDED WITH ALL BEAUTIFUL THINGS, your growth is easier.
BUT PEOPLE ARE STRANGE... You may do one thousand favors for a person and just do one unfavorable thing -- he will forget one thousand favors and he will remember that one unfavorable thing that you did. That he will carry for his whole life.
This is how PEOPLE ARE LIVING: IN REVENGE, IN ANGER, IN DESPAIR, feeling rejected by life, feeling like outcasts of existence.
But the whole thing is that YOU ARE COLLECTING THE WRONG THINGS. Life is full of both. You can see that one day is sandwiched between two nights, and you can also see two beautiful days sandwiching one small night. CHOOSE HOW YOU WANT TO FEEL -- to be in heaven or hell. It is your choice.
