People are going through their personal issues and will sometimes try to project it unto others. This is why you should not take people personally but empathise with them.
- BE A SPIRITUAL WARRIOR
To be a spiritual warrior, you have to feed yourself spiritually by having a relationship with God. We are spiritual beings and if our spirituality is not fed, we are not complete. Take time out to pray, fast, meditate.
