Perfection.

No matter how people attack you with ugly words or hatred, respond with kindness in your heart and speech. Sweetness of speech is a marvelous panacea, a magic power of soul magnetism. The way of a divine life is to be so secure in your determination to be good that no one can shake you from it. If in response to hateful behaviour only soothing kindness flows from your soul, you will be continually refilled by an inflow of God’s love, able to channel a divine flood of happiness to all. Apply that understanding to all troublesome trials, and each one will resurrect some dormant attribute of God’s image within you.
