If someone is being unkind or petty or jealous or distant or weird, you donāt have to take it in. You donāt have to turn it into a big psychodrama about your worth. That behavior so often is not even about you. Itās about the person whoās being unkind or petty or jealous or distant or weird. If this were summed up on a bumper sticker it would say: Donāt own other peopleās crap. The world would be a better place if we all did that.
