  • [Attitude 2] How you react will make a difference.



    In Moldova, I encountered tonnes of situation that people will piss you off.

    For example, in minibus, even though everybody is going to get off the same stop, they will try to push along each other like crazy to get to the front of the door.


    And one time, I got stepped on my foot and being pushed away.

    At this moment, I feel the trigger, I feel my anger is coming,

    There are 2 choices:

    1. I pushed them back and say sth in bad words

    2. I step back, dun give a shit and let them all finish their pushing



    In such situation, you are very tempted to take option 1, because human beings have the tendency to punish people when they themselves suffer, but, if yyou really do it, probably you will trigger more bad words and crazy reaction from other people.

    VS

    if you choose number 2, you just stop the cycle of "revenge" and nothing will happen afterwards.



    So how you react will make a difference.


    And most importantly, you are the one who can choose how to react.


    life is a choice.
