Picking our battles
Sometimes and we are all accused of doing this, we interject our opinions when they are not wanted. We all have a tendency to just open our mouths and allow for verbal diarrhea to come spewing forth. Sometimes this can cause fights, and other times hurt peoples feelings. Many times we dont care. But what if you are on the receiving end of that assault? What if, just for one second that was someone talking to you like that? What if what they were saying was really hurting you, and they didnt care?
Sometimes we find our shoes on the other foot. Taking time to really examine your words and what you have said to someone even if you dont agree with that person’s actions, comments, or opinions, one should always take the higher road and keep to themselves. You can talk the ears off of someone, but if they dont want to listen, then you are just wasting your time and breath.
This is where picking your battles comes in. Knowing what to say, and when to say it can truthfully help your cause. If you are suggesting something to someone and they wish not to hear it, in one ear and out the other….
Take some time to just listen, you dont always have to have a say, just listen, and be non-judgmental about things.
