It is hard being nice to people who don’t want to be nice back.  That shouldn’t stop a person from being nice though.  I thank you should try to find the good qualities in a person and love them qualities.  Sometimes the negative qualities can override the positive ones.  So then what do you do?  I don’t have the answer for that but to continue doing what you know is right.  Now, sometimes doing the right thing can feel wrong. 

 

An example of that to me would be like being kind or going out your way to help a person and they don’t appreciate it or take your kindness for granted.  That makes me feel used.  I’m not perfect and I’m no saint I am a human being whose flesh sometimes gets in the way of what’s really right.  To me if I feel used I’ll quit trying to help you or be nice to you.  But that isn’t right in God’s eyes.  So I can’t let myself get in the way of what’s right.  A man told me it is easy to find and dwell on the negative qualities of someone but there is always something good about a person or in a person.

 

 So even if a person can’t and won’t show you what you show them do not stop doing what you’re doing.  Continue being nice, kind, and good to people.  Sooner or later, they will realize and come around or walk around in conviction.  You did your part as a human and in God’s eyes you did what is right.
