“Blessed are you
when people insult you,
persecute you and lie about you
rejoice and be glad”[1]
“No matter how something cuts,
never show by an angry flash
that you have been hurt.”[2] –
trust the process
Outcomes happen
both planned and by chance,
so, never resent anything
go the way opens.
With that said, something said
contrary to the truth,
demands a quiet resistance
and a hearty correction.
“Love humiliations
and pray for them,
be disposed
to be slighted.[3]
