Dear Anita,

I thought a lot about this weekend, what we spoke about. When we harm others, we also harm ourselves.

This is new to me, this way of thinking.

I was conditioned to think about how others acted and treated each other.  Often, when others were shameless and rude, it would make me angry and think – well gosh how do they get away with that and sleep at night! or feel slighted, feeling that even if I do good, these “evil” people continue to do bad – unfair.

Your perspective, and comment allows me to see it in a different light.

Doing harm to others, being unkind, rude, etc – it isn’t just about the other person.  No it is not.  It isn’t just about how others are affected.

Acting this way, inherently affects me – when I am unkind, I also harm myself.  It doesn’t just feel “not right” it can also have long term effects.  Harboring this sort of feeling can lead me to have outbursts to other people like my husband, and impede my healing path.

Therefore, being good benefits all.
