I love this because it breaks the common thought that blooming gracefully involves being nice and jolly with everyone. It does not. Some people will exhaust you mentally, they will try to put you down and they do not have your best interests at heart. It’s best to stay away from these people, for your own mental clarity. If you can’t remove them physically, then remove them mentally. Sacrificing your growth, time and energy to people who are not worth it is very damaging in the long run. Be nice, but don’t you dare sacrifice anything. You’re blooming for yourself, NOT for others.
