I don't think anything is random. I think everything happens for a reason and that our lives are filled with tests and challenges to enable us to grow.

I'm interested to learn whether you project positive intentions on other people who might aim to cause trouble in your life. For example, if someone is mistreating you in ways you can't control, and this person isn't spiritual or religious and doesn't have a conscience, do you project forgiveness, compassion and positive feelings to help deal with the situation in hopes it might rub off on the troublemaker? If you've done it, how has it affected you.
