What if a mean one is good for me?

What if I honor every person in my life regardless of whether they make me feel good or bad or help me or hurt me?

What if those who hurt me and make my emotions flare are actually my best teachers with their difficult college classes in anger 1A, abandonment 2B, need for acknowledgment, rejection and resentment, as they push my emotional buttons and mirror my feelings that have been buried for so many years?

What if I can tell if I am doing well in a class when I do not respond in a mean way and give thanks and appreciation to the teacher?
