If an enemy makes you angry, it indicates that you have not yet gained mastery over them; if a friend makes you angry, it shows that you still value their friendship. The flowers, fruits, and leaves of a tree with a toxic root are all poisonous. Similarly, Any thoughts, words, or actions driven by greed and hatred will only result in suffering. If you cannot accept my flaws, you are not worthy of my best side. Suffering grows as you focus on it; it is your attention that nourishes it.
