Hello, my lovely people, it’s a pleasure to say hello and do my bit for Challenge 301.
This time, I’ve chosen question 2:
Tell us how you react to positive people and also to negative ones, and why.
In my humble opinion, positive people are angels on earth, who spur us on to move forward despite endless difficulties; they give us confidence and steadfastness on our journey, whether through words of encouragement that prompt reflection or actions that set an example and make a difference.
My reaction to people like this is to be grateful that they share such a human warmth in both good times and bad, and for their resilience in the face of the situations that shape us, where loyalty reigns supreme at all times – whether they are present or not – and that is worth its weight in gold these days.
Life is a journey full of patience; there are paths strewn with stones where many people get stuck along the way, or worse still, people fail to take responsibility and let themselves be overcome by fear. It’s all a test to see how you act. Everything is a matter of free will.
The people who make a real difference are the positive ones; they show leadership when correcting you privately in an unusual situation, so that you can progress in the best way possible according to your abilities. That is why they should always be part of the winning team; they are as rare as a needle in a haystack, as not everyone shines without expecting something in return.
On the other hand, there are plenty of negative people about, and we see them every day, questioning our choices based on their prejudices without looking beyond them.
No one knows the ins and outs of every household to pass judgement; there are no rights, but the tongue is always the body’s punishment.
Negative people bring no quality to our lives, only torment to those with weak personalities; for the strong, they teach us to be more wary of subtle hints and routine behaviour.
Life is made up of great lessons, and putting them into practice is part of every person’s self-assessment.
Everything has its time, and although we may not always see results, we must always be grateful for the good and the bad, for the people who come and go, as they arrive with a purpose and when they fulfil it, they leave; it is part of the journey.
There will always be people who add and subtract; it is up to you to decide which steps to follow.
Live and let live is a virtue that few put into practice, yet it is essential that it reigns in every heart.
I hope you enjoyed it. See you another time.
