Its strange to me how people react to life situations. When times get hard some people get very offensive, take little things WAY to personal, become very quiet, lash out in extreme anger, or have this crazy scowl that forms to their face. When I get angry I tend to do the whole "quiet thing". I have decided that I defiantly need to do a better job in times of deep despair. In my opinion, no matter what is happening in your life getting very offensive, taking things way to personal, becoming quiet, lashing out in extreme anger, or having crazy looks on your face, is NEVER the answer. Now im not saying never get upset but we could all work on how we react to situations.
Lately, I have felt like I don't have anything in common with a lot of new people in my life. For example, lots of married people have kids (and I don't) so I feel like I can't find common ground with these folks, or some people are graduated and in the work force (while im still in school). These examples seem so minimal but it has really bothered me. At first I just went silent and had some pretty bad feelings about some choice people. But then I realized even though those people are at different stages in their lives I can still have something in common with them. Maybe they like to dance or we like the same music. You just have to give people a chance.
Maybe I need to make a better effort in finding something in common with these people instead of going silent. Silence won't fix anything because no one will know what is wrong. But then again you over reactors, that's not going to fix anything either.
Let's work on how we react to life's situations together!
