About This Quote
When you think about people who have hurt you, or think about a time that they may have done something that affected you negatively, or if you think about a person who has a negative effect on your life, then one of two things can happen. Either 1) you will continue to build up those experiences as a bad thing that ended badly, and focus on dealing with them as much as possible, or 2) you can choose to look at those experiences as a positive thing, and make it part of the story of your life. If those things are negative experiences for you today, then one day those experiences might be positive things for you. It's important to remember that every person has the choice to be a positive influence in your life. Otherwise, if they do not contribute anything positive to your life, then just move past them and find other people that will contribute positively to the next phase of your story.
