RE: 101 Ways to happiness - #60 Don't judge the book by it's covers

in #life7 years ago (edited)

Preconceived ideas of what someone is like based on how they look, where they are from or even based on what others have said about a person is all too common. It makes for an uncomfortable situation.

I've been judged as I am sure many have. For me, the worst is being judged on something I say without being able to qualify what I meant vs what the other person heard. This kind of judgement and condemnation festers and generates more upset. It's frustrating and a joy robber.

It's so important for us to not run and talk to other people about a matter before settling it with the one you believe offended you. You may find out there was nothing to be upset about at all.

Most times the offensive thing one sees in another is the very thing they don't like about themselves.

How's that for muddling through your Happiness #60?? lol

I loved your roses btw. I was looking for a nice quote for them but couldn't find an appropriate one to go with the post. Maybe I'll find one another time. Have a great weekend @emmamia and hope you are on the mend.

Same same... I couldn't write it better girl!

And yeah...60 already... I'm starting to think what I'll do when I finish my 101. You all will be tired of the topic, but I will definitely need something new and refreshing... Luckily 41 to go... :)

And don't worry about the quote for me. Usually, when you need something you will not remember, but when you don't need it anymore it just comes in our mind. Enjoy your last hours of Sunday, and a beautiful start of new week.
