On turning people out of your life…
You’ve had an argument with someone. A person has done a wrong to you. You’ve been lied to. You’ve been cheated in some way. Or, you’ve been turned out of someones life for doing any one or all of these things. This is the focus today. Remember, you yourself have been turned away, you’ve done a wrong to someone, you’ve told a lie, you’ve cheated someone, and you’ve had arguments that led to losing a friend or family member. You have turned your back on someone dear to you, probably because your pride was hurt more than anything else. We all have, come on…get real with yourself.
People aren’t ‘things’ to be tossed out like garbage when they no longer serve our purpose. Human beings are vulnerable to making mistakes, making bad choices and making you mad at some point. Why risk losing a person in your life who could be the best friend you eve had, over something you yourself would want to be forgiven for?
Giving someone the cold shoulder, ignoring them and turning them out of your life teaches people to be mistrustful and to be afraid of you. Withholding your love is always a bad idea and is no more than bullying. People you are close to should never feel the threat of losing your love. If you choose to use love as a weapon you are merely a bully who wants everything your way, and this just cannot be in a connection between people, whether friends, couples, sisters, etc. In any relationship there are always at least 2 people, and both must learn to be tolerant, forgiving and not bully each other or use the withholding of love as a way to get what each wants. It causes lifelong harm and doing that will surely bring some pretty bad karma, later on.
