I was made aware of more drama that's going on between people that are close to me by blood but not by distance. One party, apparently, mentioned my name, not once but many times. This person tried to stir the pot, and dragged my name in the saga.
Before I discovered maturity, I would probably retaliate, without really thinking that these talks might be only hearsay. And especially if there was proof, I would likely fight in the most vicious way I could to break this person's spirit.
I'd get mad, and I'd get even.
For the past two days, I thought hard why the mention of my name this time didn't make me lift a finger. I am not angry at all, and not irked even a little. The attempt to ruffle my feathers wasn't successful.
Wow! I have grown. I definitely know now when to go to battle or choose peace over a juvenile kind of clash between adults. I know now what is worthy of my time.
I know what's my truth. I choose peace, and I choose to invest more on respect and optimism.
Great job, Lili!
