We must accept the reality that the causes of impatience travel a two-way street.
No one looks or feels attractive when angry.
While meditating we are simply seeing what the mind has been doing all along.
Praise & esteem can feel good, which is fine, but don't look to them for inner peace & lasting happiness.
We all have issues and we have usually come by them honestly.
The more we genuinely care about others the greater our own happiness & inner peace.
