I was a bit disappointed with someone misbehaving recently. I came to see it for myself this morning. When we feel down with the way things are going in our lives or hurting because of a recent break up or maybe disappointed because someone didn't do as much, the best come back is always for yourself. Accept unexpected changes and never be reduced by it. Do better only for yourself. Never hit back because you were hurt or cheated. Always keep your cool, it's something that you can be proud of.

I agree with you. Actually there are times we forget ourselves and the time things go wrong we got to save us

For me it much depends on what it is. If someome hurts me a little, I forget soon. But when someone is really mean and disrespectful, my trust in that person disappears forever.

That's right we should always accept unexpected change. Also one shouldn't keep expectations from others as that may lead to frustration at the end.

We should always be accountable to ourselves. After all, no one else will look after what is best for us but ourselves.

It is important to respect ourselves and others. It can be hard though when others disrespect us.

it is tough not to retaliate.. but i wonder why its so hard to be respectful. its as simple as how you want to be treated.

What you say is so important. And yet, other people's words really can hurt us and bring us down, even if only for a little while. Sometimes we need the element of time to heal a bit and find our own footing, you know? Someone once hurt me very deeply and it took some time for me to understand that the person's words were not true. It took my best friend sitting me down and making me realize who I am and that I'm a better person than someone's anger makes me out to be. And I sure did find myself again. :)

thats wonderful. whats important is we always help ourselves to get back up. sometimes healing isnt an overnight thing. it takes time but during those moments, we start looking at ourselves instead of hurting others just to satisfy our anger.

respect begets respect. if you don't respect and honor another person, you yourself do not deserve the respect others give you.

Yeah it's like you gave your best yet if the other didn't that means he is not deserving and you will get much better than that one.Be see the good aspect of this you would be able to know about many untouched aspects of yours, how much you can do for someone and how much loving and caring you are as a person. Every person we meet may not stay with us forever yet he make us explore many aspects of ours in a productive way.Just see them and feel proud of yourself. :)

That probably is a wise solution. When someone has acted badly if we act the same we are only lowering our self.

very true - too many people think the best thing to do if they are unhappy is to make others unhappy too which is never very nice

not very nice at all. it makes me sad that these kinds of people chose to waste their time and effort minding the lives of others instead of moving on.

We have to sometimes do things for a day. and then from there onwards everything gets adjusted on it's own. so this is defintiely in the right direction.

Yeh, and it's really just best to be patient in general, better for oneself and for everyone involved-hitting back just leads to more pain all around, creates more damage...it reminds me of that statement in the Bible, the one who is truly strong is the one who can have self control.

the more we hurt others, the longer we are miserable.
