GNAGB

I see two favorite prayers as partners, one from the start and the other from the end of the day. Right after the commonly recited Yehi Ratzon there's a short one that packs a punch, "May it be Your will to save me today and every day from brazen people and from the trait itself..." And now as I lay me down to sleep I put the other bookend in place, "Master of the world I hereby forgive anyone who angered and hurt me today..."

G-d bless me tonight
to breathe out my day, forgive
Good night , bless you G-d

"May it be Your will to save me today and every day from brazen people ..."

I will be hanging onto this prayer for dear life in the next several weeks. Thank you for posting it.

I wish you well in the deepest way. The whole prayer reads something like this (I'm remembering and translating from my head - som it's an adaptation:

May it be Your will, before you, G-d, my G-d and G-d of my fathers, that you save me today from brazen people and brazenness, from a bad person, and from a bad friend, from a bad neighbor, from a bad interaction, and from the Satan who destroys, from suffering through a difficult judgedement, and from dealing with a difficult litigant, whether he be in the Jewish community or in the broader world community.
