"Would you like to reply to a foolish world with power and poise?
You can.
Thoughtfully read the seven answers. _Remember, you do not actually
speak the answers aloud to another person_. The answers are designed
to build right and strong attitudes within you. And, of course they
are not said as angry accusations; you are merely seeing obvious facts
about the person. These silent answers will build your firmness and
understanding. You will learn how to avoid the traps of cunning people.
These answers are really very kindly, for they come from a high source
of strength and wisdom. It is weakness and confusion toward people that
is unkind, for it keeps them undeveloped. So have no guilt in seeing
thru deceitful men and women. You have a right to free spiritual speech,
and it returns a rich inner reward. When you truly understand a harmful
person you are free of him, so let these answers dissolve all problems
with people.
The world has a desperate need for strong people who know and live the
real answers to life. Be one of them."
