“You will continue to suffer if you have an emotional reaction to everything that is said to you. True power is sitting back and observing everything with logic; true power is restraint. If words control you that means everyone else can control you; breathe and allow things to pass.” -Anonymous
I’ve always felt this to be true, although we’ve our own weaknesses and vulnerabilities beset. In some measure, this could in its smallest degree vouchsafe some wisdom. God bless you with a beautiful day where you’re happy with whatever you are into.
