PATIENCE UNDER HUMILIATION: DO NOT TAKE IN THOSE WORDS
Master Jun Hong Lu: The first type of tolerance is to tolerate man-made harm.
You must learn to endure the harm and humiliation when others spread rumours about you. Be strong, you don’t have to believe or take in any of those words that are meant to dishonour you. Otherwise, you are only causing harm to yourself.
For you young couples, please remember, arguments happen. Things uttered in the middle of such fights should not be taken in. I have reminded you time and again, if you take those words too seriously, you will be troubled.
