Don't take anything personally

A simple lesson, a simple life principle. Yet so tough to follow because I always take it all in, lot stock and barrel. Never learn. So I failed, sinned, missed the point again because I took it personally. Hmm... Ok restart. Don't take anything personally. Nothing others do is because of you. What others say or do is a projection of their own reality. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't be a victim of needless suffering. Extract from The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. I will have to be more aware of myself and not forget this agreement. I will remember this and the other three agreements.
