Thank you. Yes, this is so true. If we or others react negatively, it's then very difficult, as negative reactions start recycling and get into a vicious cycle. It can become very toxic. But if we react to only those things in our own control, it's different. I am not always sure it's easier, as the road to happiness and peace isn't always an easy one to travel when we are don't want negativity. First it means rejecting the negativity and depending on circumstances, that might not be easy to do. Sometimes people give into negative people out of peace and not wanting conflict and to oppose such people is a big risk to one's own happiness, so the road maybe a difficult one - although ultimately lead to more inner happiness and fulfillment. Thanks for reading.
