That's all you had to say!

I need to remember this. Been worrying lately too much about family and friends.

It hit me one day that no one knows what they are doing in life. Everyone is just trying to make it work and get through, just like I am. We are all doing what we can to manage, to cope, to be our best selves. It was this realization that helped me most with this. Of course I always knew it intellectually, but it wasn’t until I was an adult that it really sunk in. Ever since, I have a much easier time not getting upset by what other people do. If someone acts like an asshole, I don’t like it, but I also realize consciously now that they are probably really unhappy. I used to get rude when I was overwrought pr upset, but I am much better at controlling that now, and what made that possible for me was understanding that taking it out on others made it worse, and was not effective anyway. I just was angry and felt bad too. When people do things that bother you, it helps to remember they are just trying to live as best they can.

I need to say this to myself each morning! Thank U!

I try to remember..When someone is being unkind it means they are struggling. I try not to take it personally..
