Sometimes, no matter who you are or what you do, you encounter critical people or have the urge to criticize others. What is all this testing? Awaken to why you focus on conflict.  Its not about any external provocateur. It is about how you permit the mind to control you. As you listen and connect with intrinsic value in others, you expand perspective, recognize you want  the same thing: to be loved and appreciated.

When was the last time you chose to see beautiful, lovable things in a labelled 'enemy?' You have the capacity to create a bridge.  Find something to respect and care about in people who appear to annoy you. As you do, you let go of the past. Its possible to forgive what triggers discomfort beneath the surface. Surprise yourself.  Go deeper into the meaning in how or why you judge.  Conflict is a gift and teacher.
