Have you ever been minding your own business when suddenly, out of nowhere someone contacts you and unexpectedly burst into a fit, demanding that you do something you have no idea what is and then, because you can't give them this one thing, this person starts calling you names?

The whole thing is so surrealist and seems so arbitrary that you don't even know how to react and when the earthquake is over--because this is what you feel is happening-- and you can breathe again, you ask yourself: What on earth was that?

Here is an example: you are having a great time during the weekend, enjoying your friends who came over to visit, sharing good food, good wine, and good conversation, listening to great music, relaxing and feeling fantastic, so well deserving of this great time you are having.

Or perhaps you are happily watching a movie or a football game on TV or reading a good book, or writing a letter to a loved one. Or, perhaps you are playing with your children; perhaps you playing your saxophone, perhaps you are taking an aromatic bath; perhaps you are cuddling with your lover; perhaps you are doing business, perhaps... and the phone rings.

You let the machine pick it up but then decide to answer the call anyway.

On the other line there is a person whom, out of the blue, starts blaming you for not corresponding to some expectations they had from you and you, taken aback start to justify your actions and apologize as if you were in a court martial or something and needed to prove your innocence.

Then, feeling that you must appease this person you ask for a resolution and they, instead, start to offend you and call you names. Now you are thinking that you should not take the abuse and politely end the call (or perhaps not so politely). You then become aware that a nasty rain just befell upon you and think: Gosh, what was this all about?

You become angry and your heart beats faster and your thoughts race, and your feelings are all over the place. You know you lost your cool and that relaxed time you were having before the call is gone. You think: what have I done?

You try to understand what on earth just happened but you find no rhyme or reason. And then, because you subscribe to the Law of Attraction, you think: what was I thinking to attract this to my life today?

You feel miserable and try to look into yourself to determine what caused such strange behavior. You can’t fathom how you indeed have attracted this nonsense into your life. You are mad and no matter how much you know it is up to you to forgive, you don’t want to. You feel abused, and justly so.

So what do you do to get out of that angry, unforgiving mode? Here are some ideas for you:

1. Realize that you cannot please everyone all the time. You will always find someone who, not based on real facts, complains about you no matter what you do.

2. Realize that there are things you can give and others you can’t. If another person demands what
