Iām slowly learning that I donāt have to react to everything that bothers me.
Iām slowly learning that the energy it takes to react to every bad thing that happens to you drains you and stops you from seeing the other good things in life.
Iām learning that Iām not going to be everyoneās cup of tea and I wonāt be able to get everyone to treat me the way I want to be treated and thatās okay.
Iām slowly learning that trying so hard to āwinā anyone is just a waste of time and energy and it fills you with nothing but emptiness.
Iām slowly learning that not reacting doesnāt mean Iām okay with things, it just means Iām choosing to rise above it.
Iām choosing to take the lesson it has served and learn from it.
Iām choosing to be the bigger person. Iām choosing my peace of mind because thatās what I truly need.
I donāt need more drama.
I donāt need people making me feel like Iām not good enough.
I donāt need fights and arguments and fake connections.
Iām slowly learning that sometimes not saying anything at all says everything.
Iām slowly learning that reacting to things that upset you gives someone else power over your emotions.
You canāt control what others do, but you can control how you respond, how you handle it, how you perceive it and how much of it you want to take personally.
Iām slowly learning that most of the time, these situations say nothing about you and a lot about the other person.
Iām slowly learning that maybe all these disappointments are just there to teach us how to love ourselves because that will be the armor and the shield we need against the people who try to bring us down.
They will save us when people try to shake our confidence or when they try to make us feel like weāre worthless.
Iām also learning that even if I react, it wonāt change anything, it wonāt make people suddenly love and respect me, it wonāt magically change their minds.
Sometimes itās better to just let things be, let people go, donāt fight for closure, donāt ask for explanations, donāt chase answers and donāt expect people to understand where youāre coming from.
Iām slowly learning that life is better lived when you donāt center it on whatās happening around you and center it on whatās happening inside you instead.
Work on yourself and your inner peace and youāll come to realize that not reacting to every little thing that bothers you is the first ingredient to living a happy and healthy life.
