Bryan: This morning was exceptionally infuriating. We were taken by an unscrupulous taxi driver to a non-existent pagoda and were initially forced to pay five times the amount of what we would pay if we hadnt been taken for a spin.
I was mad at myself for letting people trick me. I felt stupid. My defense mechanism was awaken. My anger towards myself was projected at the taxi driver who cheated us. I cursed, shouted, mentally wished that he lose his legs in a freak accident.
Then Lina mentioned about thinking well for others even after others have done bad unto us. Every bad thoughts I had, stopped dramatically.
Lina: I puked out my sincerity and heartfelt sympathy for his family as soon as I saw the smirk on his face as Bryan handed him the money, reluctantly. That moment silenced me and make me dumbfounded. It was a mixture of feelings.How could anyone ever have the heart to do this?
And I wondered if we never stopped him halfway, will he "kidnapped" us and sold us to a neighbouring country? Hmm...
Let me take a breather.... There must be a blessing in every experience.
