Has it ever happened to you that someone gets visibly upset with you, but you really wish they could let it go because it’s something stupid? Or have you been on the other side, where you get upset, but feel like the other person doesn’t understand, doesn’t want to talk about it, and the more you ask the more you think you’re adding to the fire?
If both people were truly open to communication, and they made it a priority to at the very least try to understand where the other is coming from, maybe the upset person would learn how to avoid the issue in the future, and the upsetee would learn that something that may seem stupid might actually be important to the other person.
I’m so mad right now. But I just don’t think talking about it will get me anywhere. In fact, it might make it worse. If I could choose a superpower it would be the ability to let things go. Man, what a sweet life that would be. Ignorance is bliss.
