We must look at the consequences of the action, and not let ourselves be mowed down. Why? because, we all have something to be the subject of criticism for, i.e. straw tail, and the candle, the fire is always close. I always think that what defines me is not what they think about me, I have big ears to listen, I know who I am from my own self-esteem and self-worth. I am not responsible for what others imagine of me, because it is impossible to control what others think or expect of me. What I can decide is that so much of what they say I allow it to affect me. Because to live pending the gaze of others is to forget about my own gaze, the one I must do towards myself, in order to create new beginnings, writing stories in which I am the protagonist and creator of each of my scripts. I've had mistakes in public and people don't forgive, I've also had them on the networks and many people behind the keyboard have jumped to destroy me, and they almost succeeded, I've had to ask for forgiveness publicly, the problem has been that many don't punish the fact they punish what they project, and in that situation anyone can be next. After those events, when I post on social networks or speak publicly, I do it from a calm and NOT from the wound, do you know why? Because there are people out there just waiting to see you stumble. *I have learned to face this type of situations with a steel personality structure and self-esteem, in order to recover my calm, my security and my voice, even in the toughest moments.* A couple of months ago I went to Margarita Island, I took some pictures with my husband, with the.sea in the background, and there were people from my closest environment even relatives who judged me to the.they told me "the situation in our country, Venezuela, is so hard and you are living on the beach and on the island of Margarita", you must be swimming in $$. Fortunately, I have learned to muddy my five senses, my brain, and my whole being, with cosmic butter to make the comments slip. Strengthening my self-esteem is very important, so that other people's opinion does not affect us and other people's judgment stays there, in indifference, because we know who we are, what we are doing and we do not need the validation of third parties. I always recommend to my people that before uploading something on the networks, not everything needs to be shared, and not everyone who looks at us, or reads us, wants to understand us. Do not make your private life an "open window" to seek approval from others. Now, looking from the side of those who are judges in public or from the keyboard, I can certainly tell you, that we can all have an opinion, but no one has a license to offend, or attack because paradoxically we fall into the same terrain of what we criticize. It is also true that every good or bad action always has a reaction... Without a doubt! If we are going to be part of that reaction to the facts, we can do it from civility, from respect, because otherwise we become what we criticize. >We are so imperfect, if I feel something in my soul, it's that someone might feel hurt by what I say or do. The world is already chaotic enough for us to add violence to others, and to ourselves. After the battle, from day to day, comes the respite of the day, my neighbor, Susan, was visiting our macaw, Linda, in the side garden of my house. Janitze.🌷
