Contempt

Lately I've been struggling with contempt.... Ok, maybe not just lately, but I've certainly noticed it being much more of a problem in my life. There's certain people that I just love, yet the things they do fill me with such contempt for them sometimes. I don't know where this feeling comes from, and it really bugs me, because the things that trigger it are small and petty. I guess I wonder if other people struggle with this, and why it's become a problem lately, especialy since I've become much more open to things, and less black and white.

Ironically, this is also something that we can control. I have been learning to think and not react. I have realized that some people have reasons in their life for doing the things they do. Sometimes it's just pure ignorance and stupidity. Sometimes it's a reach out for help.
