Sometimes someone we love - our child, our spouse, or our parent - - TopicsExpress



          

Sometimes someone we love - our child, our spouse, or our parent - says or does something cruel, and we feel hurt. We think it is only we who suffer. But the other person is suffering as well. If he weren’t suffering, he wouldn’t have spoken or acted in a way that hurt us. The person we love hasn’t seen a way to transform his suffering, so he just pours out all his fear and anger on us. Our responsibility is to produce the energy of compassion that first calms down our own heart and then allows us to help the other person. If we punish the other person, he will just suffer more, and the cycle will continue▼
