Do not fret over the ignorant person; surely they have not had the opportunities which illuminated your path.
Avoid trouble with those who are fanatics; they remain imprisoned in exclusivism and deserve compassion just as any other prisoner.
Do not be perturbed with by an ill-bred person; in most cases the one who is unsociable has a liver complaint and bad nerves.
Help the companion who is insecure; perhaps they do not have enough to supply their needs, while you retain an excess.
Do not be angry with an ungrateful person; probably they are confused or inexperienced.
Help those who make mistakes; your feet walk on the same ground, and even if you possess the possibility to correct them, you have no right to censure them.
Pardon the deserter; he is weak and will return to the lesson later on.
Aid the sick; thank the Divine Power for the state of equilibrium you are able to conserve.
Forget your accuser; he does not know your case from its beginning.
Forgive the transgressor; life will take care of him.
Excerpted from Chapter 6 of "Christian Agenda" - Chico Xavier (by the Spirit André Luiz)
