Heavy and uncomfortable realisation for some.
You may argue that someone intended to hurt you or make you feel bad, and while that may be true, there is always, always, a split second moment where you conciously or subconciously decide, or rather, choose, how you will feel about their intended actions.
For every action, there is a reaction. Your reaction is up to you, regardless of the action’s intent.
If someone says something hurtful to you, you can choose to let it hurt you, or you can choose not to take it on, let it go. If you understand that someone saying something hurtful to you has nothing to do with you and everything to do with them, it becomes a whole lot easier to let those hurtful comments bounce off you.
The stronger you become and the more you love and support yourself and think yourself a pretty awesome person, it becomes even easier to let those comments bounce off you.
One of the reasons we choose to feel hurt by hurtful comments or actions is because sometimes we believe we deserve them for some reason, or we dont yet understand that we dont deserve them.
