Do try to rise above that angry feeling that a foe inspires. It is stupid, for it hurts your own soul. He can harm none, but himself, unless you allow hate and unkind judgments to enter into your own heart.
Only what is within can hurt you.
No danger, no harm comes from without. Everything, good or bad, comes first from within your own nature. This attracts to itself either good or bad. Like seeks like. This is the law.
If you would love and pity him, instead of knocking and hating him, you would call out all the natural good in him, and so help to save his soul.
Can you not at least try that method? You know the law. Why do you not live it? Never say a word again in criticism. Keep still and pray for more love. See how much it will improve the situation. It is the only way out.
Do try. Buck up!
