		<description>I, too, have entered into the blame game...it is because of them that I have not done this or that...because of them I am hurting and in pain....it is a very subtle game, and we are not often aware we are playing it...but one day, I woke up and realized I am my own worst enemy!  They have not limited me, I have limited myself...with my own limited thinking...
Taking responsibility for my own life, releases me to create something beautiful in my life...blaming others and seeing them as my enemies drains me of life-giving energy...offering forgiveness to myself and to others is the way of freedom and joyful creativity...</description>

		<description>I think that it is possible to use your previous hurts as a point of inspiration to move on to bigger and better things.

While I agree that working from hurt and hatred is usually bad, if it is a springboard from which we recognise our correct and true paths and get the motivation to move on, then the good comes from the bad.

I&#039;d hate to say it, but sometimes the old saying &quot;Success is the best revenge&quot; really comes true, but if we also work along side this to forgive the stimulus that causes us pain, then we also have the ability to turn &quot;revenge&quot; into something positive.

The example i offer in all this is that last year I fell in love with someone who really abused the love and friendship, and wounded me emotionally.  While I grieved, it also gave me cause to re-evaulate myself, and I realised the &quot;holes&quot; I had in myself, so I started investing in my own health and personal growth, and now move in bigger and better circles and thought proceses, allowing me to do bigger and better things, the motivation being that if I ever met this person again, they would see someone most amazing.  If they feel regret, well thats their journey and their personal pain and stimulus to springboard themselves perhaps.  But I love and care for that person that I would certainly never want to knowingly cause them pain, but that is inevitable because that is something I cannot control.

Thank you Paulo, your stories continue to always inspire me to move on towards my own personal legend :-)</description>

		<description>It is something you have to realize ever again - we ourselves are the ones, who give the hidden enemies the strength to paralyse us with fear for the rest of our lifes or deprive them of their power forever.</description>

		<description>By the way, it&#039;s odd, but today I really needed to hear these words again. To know, that whatever has happened in our lives - we may overcome it, if we choose to do so. 

Thank You!</description>

		<description>Sometimes it will take time for those past &quot;enemies&quot; to lose the hold they had on us and to let us make our own will be a bigger part of our life, leading it to any direction we&#039;d want it to go. We are the creationists of our own lives! We must take responsibility for that. And if we do, everything will change, just like You wanted it to. Maybe not at the second, but changes take time. And if You discover that, it will enhance Your life for as long as You will remember that.

		<description>Yes,I am completely agree with you.But still its entirely depends
upon the person,who gone through that pain and also on his own perception on the that situation.

		<description>very nice.is good .as the good stress,stimulus.but too many enemies,as too much stress,is harmful.Sometimes as a reaction of a fight,I fix things in short time,things I postponed for long.Challenges sometimes are as an resort.</description>

		<description>The &#039;Hidden enemy&#039; or &#039;lover&#039; will ... always be in our heart ..

 As much as we want our feats and success reach the ears of those who have hurt us, so much we want to reach those we have ... secretly loved.;]

The hope/knowledge of ..eternity gives us the ..bravery to continue on our Path and our .. meeting them again on ..better or different terms.
LOVE,
Thelma</description>

		<description>True.
I wonder if the fight really worth it at the end;
I think Sido is right,past should stay past,but it&#039;s easier to say than to do,at least for me.</description>

		<description>We cannot base his(her) strength on the pain of past, because then the strength cannot exceed the past which always remains mixed with the present.

The past has to stay in past, so that the present moment transcends the Strength  
( Forgiveness / humility / wisdom ./the Amur)


on ne peut baser sa force sur la douleur d&#039;un passé , car alors la force ne peut dépasser le passé qui reste toujours mêlé au présent .

Le passé doit rester dans le passé , afin que l&#039;instant présent transcende la Force 

( pardon / humilité / sagesse ./ Amour )</description>
