Hello Hiveans š
It's Been an amazing day, stressful but fruitful. And while performing some task I had a conversation with my mum, it was an honest one that left me thinking deeply.
I told her about an encounter I had with someone and how I planned to treat them same way they treated me.
I told her that these days, Iām done giving people my all itās now Aura for Aura.
I will be me everyday and time.
But my mum said something that hit differently. She said:
āYou donāt have to let peopleās behavior influence or change the good person that you are. They are responsible for their actions, just as you are. Keep being good not necessarily because thereās a reward, but because itās the right thing to do.ā
I felt the words, they were simple but powerful. I instantly had a rethink.
It made me reflect on how easily we allow peopleās actions shape us. We cut off friends, create enemies, and hold on to grudges for things that can easily be let go of. Sometimes, we forget that we also make mistakes too.
I even saw a post where someone said she wouldnāt care if someone sheās cut off was dying
sheād ācross their dead body and leave.ā
Is it really that deep?
It's funny but in all honesty, she is being herself
Honestly we can actually do better. Yes it's Okey to set boundaries and protect your peace but don't don't loss your goodness while at it. The world needs more goodness than bitterness.
Have you ever changed how you treat people or do you alway choose kindness?
She was right if I may say, people behave most times in a provocative way making one to follow suit but on a second thought, how many people can we change to?.
Because there will always be provocative characters and treats..., so.
So it's good we maintain who we are.
