Loved this read! How you covered the deeper aspects of what it means to be nice speaks to me here. My hubs often tells me to stop worrying so damn much about what people think and if I did the right thing and if and if and if... He reminds me that this behavior does in fact open the door for other people to behave badly, and even if our intentions are good we are still responsible for the outcome. It's a tough lesson, one I'm sure he'd rather not have to be the "jerk" to help me through...
I'm trying to do exactly what works for me, balanced with having a heart, and it's tricky. The things they teach us as women, the strong desire to be a light in a world that is unfair at best... It's hard to balance. Not being a victim and instead being at cause for everything you can is powerful though.
I see you 😎❤️
Ah yes, isn't that the tricky part for sure - embracing the lesson, but not the jerks that bring them :)) Your hubbie sounds wise. But then, we knew so already, no? I hope you're both well. Hugs.
