Much as I wanted to have my first blog of the year to be in a positive tone, the timing and emotion combination unfortunately was triggered by something that ticks me off.
I am a person who adheres to rules, laws and follows directions and logic. So when I make a move or decision based on the instructions and facts I was given and then I'd be responded to like what I did was dumb or did not make sense, it really boils up my blood pressure. And I wish I knew how to give a witty come back to let that person know my defense but oftentimes I'd just be so taken aback from the circumstance that I'd end up just being quiet. It's my way of calming my emotions and be the "bigger person" so as not to escalate it to an argument or conflict. But then at the back of my mind, I think that the person does not learn their lesson and thus gets tolerated and continue to be someone who makes others feel like they were in the ones in the wrong.
Anyways, I know I am just full of emotions right now so I have to let this simmer down. Again, be the bigger person, be stoic, be logical. I should not let my insecurity preside. I should be confident because I know I was just doing the right action.
Woosah.
P.S. I just remembered that the thought I should tell myself in this situation is Wayne Dyer's words: "When you have the choice between being right and being kind, just choose kind."
