difficult people..

i am subscribed to bo's blog. i mean bo sanchez. (and also to arun gogna's. hehe. i am not a fan of them, am i? ^_^) his recent post was about the difficult people in our lives. and i could really really relate. haha. i agree that everyone has a purpose and even the so-called "difficult people" have a very good reason why they exist. ^_^ let me share a story. i swear, this won't be long. hehe. there's this person Z who has been a headache to me. but i thank the Lord for Z because it was through Z that my brother and i were able to talk seriously. sorry, i can't tell if Z is a he or a she. basta. secret. haha. anyway, yun nga. through Z, arnold and i had a very good, intimate conversation. and i have come to know the deepest hurts that he has. i was given the chance to be a sister to him and to assure him that he's never alone. i wasn't aware of the pains he's going through, all i know is that he's a bit disappointed that he had to stop because my medication was top priority. it was only this week that we're able to talk about it. and thanks to Z. i won't tell the whole story as it was too personal and i'm already sick of issues. remember, bawal akong ma-stress. hehe. ang point ko lang is, there's no really difficult person. everyone has a purpose. a good purpose. i would suggest that you read bo's blog. log on to http://bosanchez.ph and subscribe to his newsletter. i swear, you'll learn a lot. ^_^
during his last post, he talked about the special gifts that difficult people give us. and i particularly could relate to gift # 4: Difficult people can bring you closer to God.
-Difficult people force you to pray a lot. ("Lord, help! I can't take it anymore!")
-Difficult people force you to trust in God. ("Lord, I give up! I've done everything but she's still a monster...")
-Praying for difficult people may not change them, but YOU will.
-"Your cross (difficult people) is your key to heaven..." St. Poveda
-You realize that YOU are God's difficult person - yet, you're still loved by Him!

God bless everyone! ^_^
