However, on the flip side, when my parents are irrational and explosive towards me, I'm learning how to defuse the problem by being assertive about my reasons without raising my voice and showing any frustration in my expression. It's an on-going battle with my dad. In the past, I would act like my parents and fight to the bitter end, and it made me more resentful and I didn't want to learn anything from them. Practicing Compassion, Love & Kindness meditation is helping a great deal by allowing me to understand and be more aware of the problem. I'm learning how to forgive and be in harmony with them and also myself. I feel if I'm harmony with myself, it's easier to let go and be in harmony with my parents and my love ones.<br/>The Dharma is the tool that we can use to set us free and be eternally blissful.
