Sometimes It's Hard

Situations may arise that cause you to be in a bad mood. At these times, in particular, it is so important to change the way you think. You may have a situation when you just can't find what you need to change your attitude. If it is a person that is bugging you, just remember that that is just the place they are in their lives. They are different from you and you should embrace that. Not everyone will see your point of view. Not everyone will agree with you 100 percent of the time. The way they are acting is the only way they are capable of acting at this particular moment in time. Try to see the good in that person or to at least understand why they may be acting this way. Give them some time, meditate, find something to appreciate about that person. If this is too hard for you, which it sometimes may be, picture that person as an innocent little child at the age of 5. It is much harder to dislike a 5 year old child than it is an adult. Once you have that image in your head, realize that this person is the 5 year old child you see and try to appreciate their life and the place they are at in it. Then just give it some time and you will see how that person will either come around or you will be at peace with the situation.
