The secret of being free - Embracing our hurts and pains and letting things unfold in their own way and time

I agree that the secret of being free is to let things unfold in their own way and time. I think the reason some people judge us or hate us is because they have some issues that are unresolved, long before they even met us, and we happened to come along and witness their unresolved issues surfacing in the way they treat us (and others), at this stage of their journey. We realise that we are not their problem, and there is nothing wrong with us actually. Their vibrations therefore don't resonate with us at this point in time. Their jealous attitude and their shallow nature stems from the fear and separation mindset in them. We can free ourselves from their negative energy, like what you are already doing. In this sense, we are leaving them to work out their own unresolved issues.

Yes, as we leave them to work out their own issues, we will get to focus on rebuilding and enjoying our own life and health and well-being. We will look forward to living a brighter and better future towards the last chapter of our life, as mentioned in the quote. It is ok to embrace our hurts and pains along the way, even as we look forward to a better future, as it is what makes us humans who are compassionate, broken and empathic.
