The Right Solution

You know how when someone does something bad or mean to you and your first instinct is to get mad and try to get revenge?? Well what if I told you there was another way?? Read this first. :) A short version of the story.

- Funniest thing happened today: While looking for a car park today, a lady driving a red car wanted to come out from her lane and cut in front of my car. Seeing that I was only a fwe inches away from the car in front of me, I see no point in letting her through so I drove the car up when the car in front moved forward. What I saw next was the lady scolding me and starring at me like I was doing something wrong. Next thing I saw was her son sitting behind stuck his middle finger out. In return, Shi Qi who was sitting behind with Sarah saw it and gave him a 'heart shape' so the boy quickly took his finger down. Long story short, next time someone points their middle finger at you, remember to give them some 'love'. That way, we don't have to lower out standard to their standard by being annoyed :) -


Haha cool eh? Ordinarily in that situation, anyone would have thought of mean and nasty things to say back to these people. I know I would have. After all, they started it right??

But maybe thats the wrong thinking? It's typical to see people fighting negativity with negativity, but have anyone ever thought fighting it with a lil' positivity instead? Like Shi Qi. :) By seeking revenge, we're actually lowering ourselves to their already low standards. Not to mention it also ruins your mood and gives these people the satisfaction that they successfully ticked you off. So what's the point??


So why not change your mindset and trying to think of a positive way to respond instead? Something cool and quirky the reflects the kind of person you are. Who knows? They might learn a thing or two from you ;) And that just might be the right solution. :)

Shoutout to Shi Qi for her awesome-nest and for the inspiration for this blog post! :D seriously cool what you did there haha.
