And so...




... So 

If they exploit you, use and abuse you
Rebel! But never ignore the fact that the exploitation of man by man is the root of all evil

If they assault you 
Choose whether to strike back or ignore them, but never turn the other cheek

If they slander you 
Despise slander but never be merciless to the slanderer, for he lies and slunders beneath you

If they destort your image  
Be yourself and never just the one others want you to be


If they attack your dignity
Stand straight on your feet. Never bend on your knees

If they devalue, denigrate you
Know yourself, get better, but never disrespect anyone, not even those who want to see themselves above you for, by virtue of that, they fall below you. 

If they take pleasure or are indifferent in offending you
Just ignore them! You cannot turn ignorance to wisdom by retaliation in kind


If they accuse you wrongly, 
Defend yourself, but never apologise in order to defer to or appease your accusers

But then, 


If they make you aware that you have done wrong 
Admit it!  And never refuse to make amends and pay the price for  your wrongdoing

If they want to be with you
Let them be, but never allow them at will to waste your time. It's your Life - and you only live it once

If they want to go
Just let them go! Tell them if you experience  loss, but never try to hold them  back

If they hate you
Love yourself, forget them or still love them, but never allow hatred to corrupt your sole

Finally, If they show you genuine love
Accept it as a divine gift, and love them too, be the mirror of their love, always remembering that love can only be sustained in its reflection

Wrapped around your finger



wrapped around your finger?
Devil and the deep blue sea behind me
Vanish in the air you'll never find me
I will turn your face to alabaster
When you'll find your servant is your master
