Each day there are things/people that get on our nerves, upset us, or hurt us and sometimes we let these events ruin our day or take our peace. Because we let it take our peace we may, in return, treat someone the way we were treated, turning this into a vicious cycle. The first part of this cycle we cannot change, we can however change the way we react. We can laugh it off, we can try to put ourself in their shoes, we have no idea the kind of day they have had, the people they have encountered or the heartache they are feeling. Is this an excuse for them to treat you poorly? No, but lets face it, sometimes we can be rude and hateful to others when we have had a bad day. Don't let these interactions make you upset, brush it off and let it go. Life is too short to hold grudges, to try to retaliate, to have enemies, or to be too serious. Life is meant to be enjoyed, full of love and laughter, and most of all cherished. We only get one life, make sure it is one you can be proud of!
