In fact, I caused a huge controversy at my film school because I took the high road (long, long story...ah, Hollywood!) and for weeks I was pretty much the most hated person ever. And then slowly people started trickling toward me to take my side and tell me they were proud of me for standing up. Mind you, there were a lot less of them than the ones who were campaigning to have me failed, but still...it helped. Whatever it is you're dealing with, just know there are plenty of people who know you're making the right choice--even if it's not as fun as driving over the annoying people with your car. And it keeps you out of jail, so, you know, bonus points!Shannon Messengerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08003607156860716462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328014776473730528.post-81922489968368919632009-12-07T16:36:22.524-05:002009-12-07T16:36:22.524-05:00Oh I'm so sorry.

I like thinking of it that way.<br /><br />I was reading a book of his a number of years ago when something bad went down in a particular group I was a part of. People said terrible things about me. People believed terrible things about me. And I decided to choose peace. I walked away and didn't fight any of it, even though I had plenty to say, believe me.<br /><br />I googled and found Dr. Dyer posted about peace recently. Perhaps there will be something here that resonates:<br /><br />http://www.drwaynedyer.com/blog/be-the-peace<br /><br />Peace girls!<br />xo<br />LisaLisa Schroederhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10677227681455190084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328014776473730528.post-32529356293916900982009-12-07T13:43:49.481-05:002009-12-07T13:43:49.481-05:00#3 is a serious bummer, but so true :P.
