“Be kind. Be thoughtful. Be genuine. But most of all, be thankful.” ~Unknown Nobody is spared from being on the receiving end of a mean comment at some point or another.
And it’s been said time and time again that allowing a mean person to get under your skin only serves to let them control you.
The wiser thing to do is recognize that their comment about you is uninformed and get on with your day. Still, it’s far easier to know that wisdom than it is to truly feel and live it.
I remember one instance in particular: A coworker (who I had never been fond of) had recently returned from an extended leave and was seeing me for the first time in several months.
