Taking the high road.

Taking the high road is not always easy, especially for this firecracker baby. When people act untrustworthy towards me, or try to make me feel inferior to them, I know that it is them who have issues with self control. It's usually something going on with them that makes them feel inferior to me and not the other way around. I prefer to let the universe handle these sort of things. I mean why get myself all worked up over someone else's lack of self respect? Life has a way of biting people back without you having to lower yourself to a level of desperation. We reap what we sow is a very true statement, and I want them to be thinking of this situation when life finally does bite them back.

 My Mother told me when I was a child I was never argumentative. When I would ask for permission to do something, and my Mother would say no, I would quietly walk away and do it anyway. I've never liked confrontation, I avoid it like the plague, but don't make the mistake of thinking this sweet ray of sunshine will ever forget the way you treated her. Never confuse my silence with weakness. I am a strong headed woman and I will come out of every bad situation stronger than ever.

When I think I'm being lied to would be another example of when I try to take the high road. Only because I know when they are squirming their way through the conversation, and the more convincing they try to be the less sincere it becomes. In a somewhat recent situation I felt from the get go I was being deceived. Body language and avoidance is a sure sign that someone is not being truthful with you. I took it upon myself to reach out to this person in hopes I would get an answer. I was ready to hear the truth because being hurt by the truth is always better than being hurt with a lie. Instead I felt patronized in this brief interaction, and very disappointed to say the least. Rest assured there will be no more interacting with this person. Now I can move forward knowing that I am the bigger person for rising above...
