I am disciplined in my life and live as GOD would want me too and I am fed up with allowing others to come and try to darken it or jade me.
Well there it is Ali, the key to self respect. When YOU are living right, you absolutely have to fight from being pulled down into the pit of anger, jealousy, chemical addiction, critcism, sin, etc. It's mostly an internal battle. We can blame those people around us, but it is ultimately OUR decision how we take other people. Knowing where another person is coming from, drunk, angry, jealous, etc. helps us understand their words and actions, and helps us fight off the temptation of stooping to their level. We stay up, strong, immovable from God's grace, but loving, forgiving, and truthful.
Keep up the good work.
