Hello lovely people.👋👋 Welcome to my blog.
Sometimes people say annoying things to get your attention. And giving them that reaction will only fuel the situation. So if I find myself in a situation whereby someone starts making derogatory remarks about me I wouldn't react impulsively.
I will take my time and calmly observe the situation. Because not every comment deserves immediate reaction. I would rather enjoy the moment if the comment was out of ignorance.
However, I appreciate people who understand and respect boundaries. If the remarks are disrespectful I won't stay silent. Because I love and respect my boundaries and I will always stand up for myself. But I will address the issue in a respectful manner.
I believe I don't have to raise my voice, or act harshly just to address issues like this. I don't even have the strength.😂😂
All I need to do is to make my boundaries clear without escalating the matter or causing scenes.
Another thing I would like to add is… As a person, don't take things too personally because people might hurt you out of ignorance. And there are also some people who project their own frustrations or anger onto others. These are the little things I do personally and it has helped me a lot in my daily life. It helps me detach emotionally and not let people's words hurt me or my self-worth.
Lastly, how I choose to respond explains a lot about my character. I would rather be known as someone who handles situations peacefully not out of anger.
Don't let other people's opinions cloud your thoughts because they don't define who you are. All you need is to know your worth.
Bye for now, have a lovely week.
