Ingratitude of humans, the - how not to suffer from it

07/23/2018

We are not always rewarded for the good we do, but that must never be a reason to regret having done it. Let us say you have given someone material support, and then one day, you discover that they did not deserve your help. Not only were they ungrateful, but they plotted against you in additon. Obviously, you are tempted to tell the whole world about your disappointment. But this is not the right attitude. If you go around complaining and regretting your good deeds, you lose all credit. It had been recorded up above that you should be rewarded, and now, by telling everyone that you have been let down and misled, you erase the good you had done. So, even if people behave badly towards you instead of showing gratitude, turn a blind eye and forgive them. This is how you grow. And whatever you have lost will be given back to you a hundred times over later. No matter what people do to you, do not get caught up in the settling of scores. Wait for heaven to pronounce itself in your favour, as one day, it inevitably will.
