be strong

"Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you. This is the essence of all that is taught in the law and the prophets." - Matthew 7:12

I often tell myself that regardless of what people do to me, or say behind me, I should always hold on to the scripture above. It hurts to know that there are people who are talking, or even publicly discussing about your private life - who your friends are, etcetera.  I know there is nothing that I should be ashamed of, but to be honest, the last thing I wish to be involved in is to be gossiped about, especially when these people are those who would spread every single thing from one to another. Sometimes I get really curious why people would even bother knowing what is going on in my life. I would be more than happy if you are willing to ask me face-to-face instead of whispering behind my back. Tell me, should I be happy for the attention given? I don't feel too comfortable with it. But then again, these are the trials for me to learn to forgive, and forget. No holding grudges. Let go of all the bitterness. I trust God for justice.
