“Learning to be calm
when you’re disrespected
is a superpower”
I’m sure
that we all agree that
‘this is difficult’.
When another person is rude to us
and disrespectful,
we just want to retaliate
and fire back.
It is (kinda)
human nature
to want to do this.
It certainly is
a ‘superpower’
to remain Calm
and to do the opposite
(or nothing).
It is at times like this
that we should look after ourselves
and not the other person.
They are being unkind.
We should be
“Kind”
to ourselves.
Being Calm
is to have
a Beautiful Quality in our Lives.
To maintain our own Inner Peace,
at a time like this,
will Help ourselves —
Mentally,
Emotionally and
Physically.
Remaining Calm
will keep our Minds
Balanced
in a Positive Way.
Remaining Calm
takes any hurt away from us
Emotionally.
Remaining Calm
protects us Physically
because then we will not fight.
And it is
“Stronger” thing to do.
Having Empathy and Understanding
will also Help.
For the other person,
yes.
But
also for Ourselves too.
This also emphasizes
the very real ‘reality’
that we ourselves
do not disrespect other people.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Do you understand haiku?
Do you ever get sidetracked when writing? I do. I think it must be in the nature of the creative mind to draw connections and have a need to explore them. Since the World Wide Web became established in the 1990s, this has become a lot easier to do. The phenomenon being described as ‘going down a wormhole.’ Sometimes a distraction, but I have written some of my best work when I have disappeared down one web wormhole or another. It also happened in the days when most of my research was book based so we can't blame it on the internet. Book research was just slower. These days, guided by my AI friend, it is much, much quicker.
