Welcome Friend!
My material ranges from food, fashion, inspiration, life and whatever else may take my fancy. I write in the form of letters to my alter ego Veronica which gives me the freedom to discuss certain topics with a conversational and human voice. In essence my blog is for open discussions especially the philosophical variety. I hope you stick around and if you want to talk, don't be a stranger and drop me a comment. x

Rain, Passivity, Sharks

Dear V
Let me tell you how to not let someone rain on your parade.
1. Focus in yourself for a second. Close your eyes and control your breathing until it slows significantly- now your calmer you won't do anything stupid that you will regret
2. Smile, because the best revenge is not to show weakness. Don't patronize though. That person is like a shark, so treat them like it. If there's blood they can smell it, so make sure none of the blood is yours. Soon they will get bored and find someone else to molester.
3. Passivity is key in this situation. Don't fight the tide but also don't let them walk all over you. You have standards and you have the right to be respected. Like number two it's like a diversion.
4. Tell them "y'all raining on my parade (insert noun)" approaches include sarcasm, aggression or any in between.
5. Be empathetic and try to decipher why they're doing this. It will be a lot easier to let go of what has made you tick. Just like you they're human too. They have problems aswell and everyone should not be so ignorant of this.
P.s If keeping this in mind was helpful for me than maybe it might be the same for you.
Love
Michelle
