An incident today made me think and reflect upon myself.
Have I become insensitive to the dearest people around me?
She: oh, I can't afford that, it's an expensive watch.
Me: no, only $199!
She: -silent-
I think that I'm being myself and speaking my mind but I've only considered my own perspective and was blind to theirs.
I thought that I would just speak my mind and then if I'm wrong we can have a discussion about it, but I have failed to understand their personalities. They may not want to argue with me or they are really gentle people who will just absorb what I said and let it pass.
I've become reckless and inpatient to the dearest people around me. I'm feeling sad and guilty for it.
This is a trait that should be displayed at work in office but not to be taken back to gentle people like my family and friends.
This is one post that I wrote with tears.
A reminder to self to be sensitive again. Listen with my heart and speak with care.
Spare the thought to think about others, others who are so dear to me and not just thinking about myself.
