The only thing scarier than your own emotions spiraling out-of-control is when other peoples do.
The truth about being altruistic is that its often not a premeditated thing.
Genuinely wanting to help other people is an impulse for which you dont feel the need to reward yourself.
God & Man
You cannot change the way people think and perceive the world around them.
You cannot force them to react differently.
Your power rests only in yourself.
Others need to validate their trauma in a way thats not threatening: petty drama.
Others feel so vulnerable themselves that being hateful towards others is their most ardent defense mechanism.
… And absolutely none of this is solvable by trying to police someones reaction to something.
People dont change when theyre told to, they changed when theyre forced to.
They change whennot changingbecomes the less comfortable option.
People dont become self-aware because someone lectured them enough.
You dont have to play their god.
When you meet a hateful, judgmental, cunning person, you dont have to punish them.
