You cannot be influenced by negativity if you choose not to. Nothing can compel you to enter the darkness when you have chosen to be in the Light. The power of freewill choice lies with you and only you. Yours is to challenge the dark; not to succumb to it in fear and trepidation, whining and complaining about people and situations that threaten your peace.
The moment you decide to be in charge of yourself and take responsibility of your life, you will discover your inner strength that can help overcome the darkness around you. You are the captain of your ship. Steer your vessel in the Light always. Be in full control during the nasty storms of life. Keep your wits about you and handle the situation with grace and poise to prevent your vessel from capsizing. Anchor it firmly in the core of God's Light or else it will drift away with the dark, roaring waves that will toss it around, and thrash it against the treacherous rocks that lie hidden beneath them.
As a captain, you need to be strong and courageous. Deal with all situations with equanimity and higher understanding. Just as you need the skill to maneuver your boat in the raging seas, similarly, you need to exercise tact and diplomacy in bringing about peace when things get tough. You need to shine your light on people who are steeped in the darkness of anger and hatred. The Light will help them see where they are going, and what direction they are taking along their journey in life. Only a good, hardy captain can bring his ship home safe and sound, at the end of a harrowing voyage.
