Inspiring story about Buddha,
" Hearing that Buddha was enlightened , a man traveled far to see him.
But this man was full of hatred.
When he found the Buddha, he swore at him, cursed him, and called him names day and night.
The Buddha continued to meditate quietly with a warm smile on his face.
After several days, the man grew tired, as he hadn't broken down the Buddha at all.
Finally, one morning the Buddha called the man to him.
The Buddha said,
" Let me ask you a question. If a man brings me a gift and I refuse to accept it, to whom does the gift belong ? "
The man thought for a minute and said,
" To the one who gave it."
The Buddha smiled and nodded.
Then he said,
" Then if you come to me with the gift of hatred and I refuse to accept it, to whom does the hatred belong ? "
The man gasped,
" To me."
After that, the man became a follower of the Buddha and was happy for the lesson he learned about love. "

The point of this Buddha's story is how to stay connected to your well-being, no matter how anyone treat you.
We are all human beings, we are emotional animals, so it's easy for our feelings to be influenced by the environment we are surrounded.
I suppose only a few people could be like the above quote, such as Buddha, Jesus, and someone who has the same vibrational energy with extremely high frequency levels.
Personally, I've never seen people who have such a very high frequency level around me so far in my life.
I've read that in the present time also there are people who are similar to Buddha and Jesus whose frequency level are extremely high, and has no distance from love.
If one can hold your vibration no matter the situation, and is not influenced by other's vibration, everything would go effortlessly, and one would get anything whatever one wants.
But if it's easy, the world would be full of love and peace, and there would no war.
because love is the most powerful thing in the world.
From my experience,
When I was working for a company as a temp, there was a woman who was sitting in front of my desk, there was no partition between my desk and her desk.
Since I started working in the company, I had issues with that woman and she was the one assigned to teach me my work.
There are people who are a match and not a match with each other, like oil and water or monkey and dog.
From the first day of my work in the company, I got stress working with her.
Day by day, it got worse, and I got insomnia and got stomachaches every day.
I was living by myself at that time, so it was not so easy to quit a job to pay all the bills and protect my living.
So I started talking to myself what's the best way to solve this issue ?
I also asked to my best friend about my issue how she would handle this situation if she was me.
But she and my personalities are different.
She can sort two faces which are social face as business, and private face and does well without having stress.
But it was hard to sort the face ( to act ) for me, so I read several books which made me feel better.
and as a result, I chose to think only good part of her, and tried to like her.
and I changed my attitude with smile and full of like energy to her.
Then things started getting better and better.
At the end, when I quit that company, she gave me a gift and she was nice to me.
However, after I quit the work, I had never contact her.
Because in my free time, I prefer to communicate with people who I can feel naturally comfortable and can enjoy without effort.
I didn't hate her.
I didn't have to dislike her since I tried to like her.
I felt there was something which was like a message I met her in my life at that time for learning to improve my life.
There are people who can have two faces and can act like a business like social face and a private face.
But I realized I get sick if I have two faces.
So only way to handle this tough situation for me was to like her from bottom of my heart so that I didn't have to feel stress to deal with the person.
At that time I didn't know about law of attraction, so I guess maybe my genie navigated me how to solve the situation.
Much much later from then, around 2007, I discovered about law of attraction.
Since knowing about law of attraction, I stopped using the word "Hate ".
Because hate attract hate, and we will not solve any issues with the feeling of hate. and since knowing the words have power to make things good or bad.
The word " hate " sounds very strong to me.
If we send " hate" energy, one will receive the same energy that was sent.
So I stopped using the word since then.
“Be kind to unkind people - they need it the most”
" Those who are hardest to love need it the most. " - by unknown
I agree with these quotes.
People who are unkind or hurting others have issue with their life and unhappy, and it's always coming from lack of love to themselves and others.
and anyone can be mean to someone who one has issues with anytime.
This is why we can not judge someone as " unkind " or" mean" seeing just one part of them.
For example,
He/She is unkind to me, doesn't necessarily mean that she/he is a mean person.
The person has issue with herself / himself seeing something problem through me, this is why the person may react sensitively.
Another example,
He/She is unkind to many people, almost everyone I know, doesn't mean he/she was born as a mean person.
However, "giving love " doesn't mean you need to stay with or around toxic people.
because it's very important to love oneself and if your inner voice is telling you that you are not comfortable to be with a person, then following your inner voice will get good results.
If it's hard to be in harmony with a person even when we give love to him/her, then it's better to stay away from the person.
I feel it's always good to be surrounded by people who are full of love and make you feel happy and giving love to you.
The purpose of relationship is giving love each other, but whenever I see relationship which are like love became hatred at the end, sticking to love with a toxic person is not good idea at all.
There is a famous quote,
" Birds of a feather flock together"
Also according to Law of attraction, same kind of people who have same kind of frequency levels are attracting each other.
If one is dealing with toxic person who makes you feel uncomfortable every day, good to go to the direction where there are people who make you feel good and happy and comfortable.
Go to the direction which you feel joy, makes you feel good.
