“How people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours.”
Some people are jerks.
We all have bad days where we are overwhelmed from the coffee pot soiling all over and the dog pooping on the bathroom floor and our kid being sick — so we try to have empathy and understanding tempered by tolerance for situations.
But some people are just a$$holes.
And when you see the difference between a bad day and a bad person and can walk away from the negative, hateful, destructive individual, your life and world gets better.
Never try to trade your integrity or peace for a little bit of compensation, because no matter how much you are paid it will never be worth it. The Universe intends better for you if you are strong enough to say no to anger and evil.
