Good evening hivers, I hope you had a great Sunday... Next, I share with you my participation to the interesting questions that our friend proposes us on weekends.
If you were to see someone being attacked on the street this weekend would you step in to help or walk away?
I will answer this question from my own personal experience... On several occasions I have been presented with this type of circumstance where I have had to decide whether to approach to stop the aggression or to distance myself. Sometimes my intervention had positive results, but not always the experience was good, since on several occasions for wanting to help I was involved in a conflict that was alien to my life, after these unpleasant results I came to reflect from the maturity and coherence that not always our intervention is the point of salvation of an aggression, based on this I made the decision to stay out of a conflict, but I would not stand idly by but would ask for help to prevent that aggression ends in a tragedy.
When I observe these types of events I stop for a few seconds and think that there is a big difference between: what we should do, what we want to do and what we can do. These three points have always helped me not to doubt my way of acting. Sometimes we give priority to what we want to do and let ourselves be carried away by our feelings, but in these types of circumstances we must react coherently and reflect on whether we really can and should take that step. I always keep these three pillars in mind when I feel doubts in my mind, there are many ways to help your neighbor who is a victim of aggression, intervening is not a good decision, by asking for help in the right way we become the lifesaver of that emotional tsunami. There are times when we have to act with a cool head and with emotional intelligence, if we let ourselves be carried away by our impulses we can worsen what is already bad.
Thank you very much for visiting my blog, I send you a big hug!
