Hi Brooke,
Merry Christmas!

I have a nasty neighbor. She keeps her blinds open 24/7 and watches me, talks about me, makes comments about what time I go to sleep. She is difficult to say the least.She has said, all kinds of things. In my opinion she is not very likeable.

Here is my question, For the longest time my desired emotion was peace. I wanted everything to be peaceful and calm in all situations. Now, I am seeing that maybe that wasn’t the best emotion because I put up with a lot of stuff. Perhaps when dealing with difficult people the desired emotion could be contempt or disgust. Me being nice didn’t bring a peace space.
Please weight in on this. Being nice and tolerating her behavior is not serving me.
