Hello friends of Weekend Experiences, I wish you all a great weekend ☺️. The topics this week, as always, caught my eye. It is worth noting that 
Tell us how you respond to positive and also negative people and why.
At some point in our lives, we have all been either the positive person or the negative one. Some learn that neither extreme is good and that it is also necessary to examine ourselves when we constantly encounter certain types of people in our lives, whether they have a positive or negative attitude.
I am not the most positive person in the world; in fact, at one point in my life, I saw everything as dark. I didn't feel "enough" or capable of achieving certain things, and I recognize that seeing the brilliance in others could make me feel like I was falling behind or that I was doing things wrong to have the life I desired.
When I recognized this pattern of negativity in myself, I realized I wasn't doing it intentionally; it was simply a way of learning to live that made me feel less guilty or responsible for my own decisions. Now, when I encounter people with a negative attitude, it makes me feel quite uncomfortable—even knowing that I am also like that at times. It’s just that I have improved; I’ve recognized mentally and emotionally that it isn't a good way to live and that it truly contributes nothing to us, other than making us feel resentful and heavy, as if we were carrying all the bad things that could possibly exist.
With negative people, I always try to understand why they behave or think in such a limiting way. I also evaluate if that relationship is affecting me or making me believe that their own fears or limitations are mine. I try to move forward and not get stuck in conversations that lead nowhere, mostly because those who always think negatively end up pushing everyone away with their attitude. I also don't believe a person can be eternally happy and perfect; life is full of nuances and not everything is black or white. I didn't see it that way before, but after a long time of reflection, I understood that’s just how it is.
Positive people used to trigger a sense of rejection in me, rooted in the belief that they didn't understand my life or my situations. However, surrounding myself with people who always find solutions instead of excuses—who see life with hope and even faith—helped me understand that everything in life is a balance. We shouldn't be overly positive, but not too negative either. There are still moments when I find myself seeing everything in a bad light, but ideas come to mind about who I no longer want to be or what I don't want to repeat. So, I try to learn from every person and story I get to know.
I hope you liked this post, and I would also like you to leave me your comments; I will gladly read them and will respond to them.
