Anger makes you smaller, while forgiveness forces you to grow beyond what you were.

This is long, but it's MAYA, for heaven's sakes! :)
(Sidebar: I was actually researching for a story I'm writing and stumbled across this. IT IS POWERFUL! )
DEFINITION OF A HATER BY MAYA ANGELOU January 27, 2010 A hater is someone who is jealous and envious and spends all their time trying to make you look small so they can look tall. They are very negative people to say the least. Nothing is ever good enough! When you make your mark, you will always attract some haters…That’s why you have to be careful with whom you share your blessings and your dreams, because some folk can’t handle seeing you blessed… It’s dangerous to be like somebody else… If God wanted you to be like somebody else, He would have given you what He gave them! Right? You never know what people have gone through to get what they have. The problem I have with haters is that they see my glory, but they don’t know my story… If the grass looks greener on the other side of the fence, you can rest assured that the water bill is higher there too! We’ve all got some haters among us! People envy you because you can: Have a relationship with God Light up a room when you walk in Start your own business Tell a man / woman to hit the curb (if he / she isn’t about the right thing) Raise your children without both parents being in the home Haters can’t stand to see you happy, Haters will never want to see you succeed, Haters never want you to get the victory, most of our haters are people who are supposed to be on our side. How do you handle your undercover haters? You can handle these haters by: Knowing who you are & who your true friends are *(VERY IMPORTANT!!) Having a purpose to your life? Purpose does not mean having a job. You can have a job and still be unfulfilled. A purpose is having a clear sense of what God has called you to be. Your purpose is not defined by what others think about you. By remembering what you have is by divine prerogative and not human manipulation. Fulfill your dreams! You only have one life to live…when it’s your time to leave this earth, you ‘want’ to be able to say, ‘I’ve lived my life and fulfilled ‘my’ dreams,… Now I’m ready to go HOME! When God gives you favor, you can tell your haters, Don’t look at me…Look at Who is in charge of me…’ |
Oh dear, not that I disagree of course who would...but me being rather 'haterish' in my own haterish way...I MUST take offense. No quote no poetry just me, thank you, that is all.

In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks.
The power of imagination makes us infinite The mountains are calling and I must go. When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe. A few minutes ago every tree was excited, bowing to the roaring storm, waving, swirling, tossing their branches in glorious enthusiasm like worship. But though to the outer ear these trees are now silent, their songs never cease. [he put himself out there with tree during storms, to experience what tree knew of storm]. John Muir |

There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; or you can live as if everything is a miracle.
~Albert Einstein |
“When we suffer anguish we return to early childhood because that is the period in which we first learnt to suffer the experience of total loss. It was more than that. It was the period in which we suffered more total losses than in all the rest of our life put together.” - John Berger |
