What I learned this past week:
1. When you're angry... 'tis never the right time to confront someone who's miffed you. Wait til you're all calm and ready to talk without having to bluster your choler out.
2. Making conclusions aggravates differences and misunderstandings.
3. You can't convince an angry person. Either the person will take everything you say against you or he will hate you more.
4. (truly) You can't please everyone. It's basically just about 'contentment'. Sadly, people don't just get satisfied unless the favor's always theirs.
5. It's hard to decide whether to open up OR to just stay quiet and keep your pains inside when you're sure you'll only be misunderstood.
6. People just have different opinion about the same topic. Each one will insist on their own point of view. No one can do anything about it.
7. What is true for me may not be true for you. And what is true for you may not be the truth for the person next to you... We all have different truths.
8. Communicating our feelings out can't always solve the problem.
9. There are people who are just easily steamed.
10. There is completely no point in explaining your side to someone who is NOT interested to even hear it, anyway.

Hi Paper Tiger, nice blog and interesting post.
ReplyDeleteTo me everyone is different, and some may love Hondas, some a Ford, some a bicycle...and most of all, different viewpoints or opinions.
It can be upsetting or frustrating re your mention here...but all we can do is just smile and walk away..
Sometimes its best to just ignore...or else get more wrinkles, ha ha.
You have a nice day, Lee.
