Law of Energy Conservation

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed  - only converted from one form of energy to another.

Today I had an unreasonable patient yell at my staff and me. I felt so wronged because he was angry about something that wasn’t our fault. I came home feeling irritated and out of sorts. Later, I caught myself snapping at my kids. 

Negativity is like that. Someone dumps all their negative energy on you, and you end up absorbing it and passing it on. All those bad feelings don’t exist in a vacuum. And they don’t disappear on their own. It affects you, brings you down, and then poisons your interaction with others.
