Listen I know that there are times when you can have sensitive spirits. It could be that you are going through a rough patch but please know that everything ain’t about you. There are times when you have to attempt to get your emotions together and place them in the right category.
For instance this morning I am talking to a friend. She is going through. I am trying to listen to her, give her hugs, reassure her that things will fall into place when an associate comes and is like what are you talking about, me? Now I am looking puzzled and trying to find the right way to respond because my friend is normally outgoing and had she been in the right frame of mind she would have been the one to tell her to go and keep it moving. I also didn’t want the friend who is going through to be so upset in her own emotions to lash. So I give the girl the “look.” The look is girl you see she is upset, this ain’t your fight, relax. So she gets it but it reminded me so many times we have whatever going on that we push those emotions through to others and there is no need. We were not having a conversation about the associate whatsoever. She was thinking that because of whatever is on her mind and heart. No one wants to hear someone prejudge them when they haven’t even given thought to that person. That comes from the person having something on their mind and heart and pushing that on to others. As adults if you have an issue with someone speak up. There isn’t a class on mind reading. Discernment goes a long way. Had the associate had some or just looked at body language she would have kept on moving. My friend could care less at that moment what she thought. Neither could I if I am honest and I am sure my face let her know that. There is no need to take others who haven’t given you the green light to an issue through an emotional roller coaster.
So today, if you have something tugging on you that makes you think something is happening that isn’t-ask. Everything about you. People generally don’t wake up attempting to find out how to mess your day up. How they are going to talk about you today. The folks that do that have no life or for sure have a lot in their life that is out-of-order. Ignore the emotional pull of these people. Giving into them only fuels them.
