“You don’t ever have to feel guilty about removing toxic people from your life. It doesn’t matter whether someone is a relative, romantic interest, employer, childhood friend, or a new acquaintance — you don’t have to make room for people who cause you pain or make you feel small. It’s one thing if a person owns up to their behavior and makes an effort to change. But if a person disregards your feelings, ignores your boundaries, and continues to treat you in a harmful way, they need to go.”

- So very true, I always feel guilt when I have to remove people that are harming me physically, mentally, and energetically sucking me dry. This recently happened with a great human I met but not a very good friend and I felt really bad that our friendship had taken the wrong turn but she felt almost empowered that she was causing me pain. Never the less things happen the way they should and she taught me a lot.

Comments of 24.

This passage means a lot to me because it always reminds me to stay humble. In a world were everyone is trying to be something and define themselves I find this passage relaxing because I refuse to define myself, not because I want to but because I have seen in my life that who I am changes often. There is no point in doing this aside from the need of the ego. We are fluid not fixed, this is freedom and liberation.

Peace & love

24.

He who stands on tiptoe

doesn’t stand firm.

He who rushes ahead

doesn’t go far.

He who tries to shine

dims his own light.

He who defines himself

can’t know who he really is.

He who has power over other

can’t empower himself.

He who clings to his work

will create nothing that endures.

If you want to accord with the Tao,

Just do your job, then let go.

Lao-tzu, Tao te ching

If you want to be a great leader,

You must learn to follow the Tao.

Stop trying to control.

Let go of fixed plans and concepts,

and the world will govern itself,

The more prohibitions you have,

the less virtuous people will be,

The more weapons you have,

the less secure people will be,

The more subsidies you have,

the less self-reliant people will be.

Therefore the Master says:

I let go of the law,

and people become honest.

I let go of economics,

and people become prosperous.

I let go of religion,

and people become serene.

I let go of all desire for the common good,

and the good becomes common as grass

- Lao- tzu, Tao te Ching

10 Examples of Bush and the Republicans Using Government Power to Target Critics

They say two wrongs don’t make a right, but ignoring one of those wrongs while vilifying the other is intellectually dishonest and violently hypocritical, among other things.

“I spent the entire day the building collapsed on the scene, watching as injured garment workers were being rescued from the rubble. I remember the frightened eyes of relatives — I was exhausted both mentally and physically.

“Around 2 a.m., I found a couple embracing each other in the rubble. The lower parts of their bodies were buried under the concrete. The blood from the eyes of the man ran like a tear.

“When I saw the couple, I couldn’t believe it. I felt like I knew them — they felt very close to me. I looked at who they were in their last moments as they stood together and tried to save each other — to save their beloved lives.

“…This photo is haunting me all the time. If the people responsible don’t receive the highest level of punishment, we will see this type of tragedy again. There will be no relief from these horrific feelings. I’ve felt a tremendous pressure and pain over the past two weeks surrounded by dead bodies. As a witness to this cruelty, I feel the urge to share this pain with everyone. That’s why I want this photo to be seen.”

— Photographer TASLIMA AKHTER, on his photo of man and a woman discovered in a final embrace amidst the rubble of a fatal building collapse in Savar, Bangladesh.
