Certain things can only be dealt with by ignoring them; if you face them you increase their power. It is absurd to say, Pray about them; when once a thing is seen to be wrong, don't pray about it, it fixes the mind on it; never for a second brood on it, destroy it by neglect.

Never become attached to anything that continues to hurt God. For you to be free of it, God must be allowed to hurt whatever it may be.
