YOUR RESPONSES

textgram_1431436924
Hiya Lhers!!! How has your day been? Hope we are good? I wish I could say I’m good but I am not feeling myself at all, my throat is just doing me one kine, one kine like I’m about to have cough.
Today’s post is related to a passage I read during my quiet time this morning. The writer started the passage with a question. He said “How do you respond when you are treated badly?” He gave a short story of a man who stopped by a news-stand every morning to pick up a paper and every time he stops, the man behind the counter would always be nasty to him but the man was always nice to him. When a friend asked him why he remained so kind in the face of such rudeness, his reply was “Why would I let his attitude dictate my attitude?” Hmmm….
What’s your take on this?
BTW Lily’s Haven is 5 Months today. The journey has not been so smooth but I’m still moving forward. Thanks guys for keeping me company on this long journey, it means a lot to me. Lots of love LHers!!! Tibs of life I sight you, thanks for always reminding me …

  2. Firstly, hope your throat feels better already. Secondly, congratulations on your blog journey so far. Well what do I do when I get treated badly? Well if it’s a business, I simply stop patronizing them, and if it’s an individual, I make it a point to call them out, and respond with love -no one can really make you feel bad about yourself, unless you allow them.

    Let me be obviously be frank here, I do wish I had the heart and attitude of the man(victim). I’m quick tempered and really find it difficult to forgive those who offend me.

    I do believe changing for the best and adopting the attitude of that man is te way yo go.

    Thanks and please do have a great weekend as well.

    • Thanks for being frank Mykojokrom. I used to be quick tempered(still am tho) but now what i do is ignore. I believe you can work on your temper just like me by tolerating or ignoring people that are annoying. Truth is i have so many of them in my office, I see them everyday, they piss me off but i just ignore. I used to let their attitude affect me and i noticed i was always sad, don’t give a shit about them anymore, i act like they don’t exist, talk to them when necessary.
