Your way up
One of the criticisms I've faced over the years is that I'm not aggressive enough or assertive enough, or maybe somehow because I'm emphatetic, I'm weak.I totally rebel against that, I refused to believe that.... You cannot be both compassionate and strong

An understanding is skillfully achieved through the cultivation of Bodhichitta, that requires study.
Indeed!
that it's somehow means you are not striving hard enough for success or that you haven't "got what it takes". ... Yet the reality is that it is compassion that makes us emotionally strong
It is @ time misinterpreted but they are virtues and qualities that signify a strength of character that serve humanity well and are innately intwined with the success and civilisation of the human species
The exchange is base on the mannerisms of others.
I go back and forth on a daily basis. I show kindness when it is received and I can be hostile when needed to be.
That is so true
I always encounter dealing people around me
with two versions of me
"People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centred; forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; be kind anyway.”
Mother Theresa
Great piece of writing, appreciated.
Now commenting on your subject, yes you are weak as everybody shall be in the given situation. There is a rule, either be the part of a crowd of the majority, or stay at one of the two extremes.
You can choose to be an unstable free radical or a stable successful person.
Choice is all and always yours.
Without a clear idea of one’s own preferences, making the right choice can be extremely difficult and confusing. Everyone’s personality is unique, and knowing what makes us, us can lead to more life satisfaction and better life choicescheers:
Just want to add. Kindness has a connotation of meaning someone is naive or weak, when actually, that is not the case. Being kind often requires much courage and strength in the face of times when it seems pressures of life and the world want to tear us down.
They say a boxer, an athlete loses as soon as he/she gets upset and loses whatever play or plan they had to win. Anger at times gets the better of a person, then the person may react in saying something or doing something in the heat of the moment, only to regret and apologize for it later, when they perhaps should have been stronger not to erupt, and handle the situation a better way.
Okay, that's my 2 cents of opinion. plus tax
Kindness is one of our core values—and one that has helped us become better in everything we do.
Prove they're wrong would be the best
Good insight
I find most of these comments disagreeable,
especially as a woman.
I surely am old-fashioned in that regard,
but not shocked by it.
Everyone has its own idea then I leave that for you
It very much sounds like you take other peoples opinions far to seriously when they judge you, myself i don't worry about others opinions when it comes to my actions and life. Because other people are not living my life or taking responsibility for my actions, thats all on myself..
Most likely when a person you know that judges in a particular way and voices their judgment/opinion on your ways, the same will happen to that person and you may be the one that see's weakness in their ways but you may not comment on their weaknesses..
I prefer not to comment with my opinion on the ways of others actions and life unless its a manger safety concern, i would rather let a person learn the life lessons for themselves..
Well. I would admit I am sensitive as a fish
my nature of being like it somehow made me overcome it as I learn it's effect of being so. Over all I can be a tiger if I need to
hands up
I didn't get a chance last blog, as I write Sundays
only or DM ( you can not be mailed).
It was CONGRATULATIONS on your
dream home. I was very happy for you at the news!
Thank you.
That was sweet of you.
That dream house is the fruit of my labor a perfect place to live
I think the word is not "pretending"
In the course of the comments and my emphasis of being both compassionate and strong
Yes, I agree! May be I did not read all of the comments, sorry
Compassionate people are some of the strongest people out there.
It is indeed
Count me in
And at the low end it will leave you unpromoted or in poverty and maybe disabled, too.
Thank you for taking time to read my old blog
This remind me of that moment when I really lost control of my emotion that lead me realizing that I am over acting ????????
That makes the two of us
