Where There are Enemies, Make Freinds

   Where there are enemies, make friends. Where there are those who hate you, give them no cause. Where there are those who misunderstand you, explain yourself. Where there are those who envy you, praise their good traits and achievements to help them understand they are good in their own right, and need not envy others. Where there are those who look down on you, give them a warm but firm smile to let them know you feel both fine about yourself and fine about accepting them regardless how they feel about you. Where there are those who abuse you, treat them right. Where there are those who see the faults you surely do have, spend enough time with them that they learn you have a balance of good. Where there are those who think ill of you in any way, love them.
