Little Wisdom #2

November 11, 2008

When humiliation leaves you feeling angry, look at those around you and think only of their perspective. They have forgotten all about it, yet you dwell on the delusion that they are looking at you with judgment in their eyes. Accept this to forget humiliation.

When humiliation leaves you feeling angry, ask yourself if ideal behavior would have prevented the slight. Let the shame wash over you, and emerge from it a wiser person because you understand your mistake and the solution. Do this to conquer humiliation.
