What do you do when some family and friends say "all you say / think are negative about the world"
🗣️ DISCUSSION 💬
I get this a lot. "You are so negative about everything, your outlook, worldview, nobody will want to be friends with you"
Sometimes I get "all the people you praise, most people view negatively, and the people you praise like Trump most people frown upon"
I stand my ground insisting I tell the truth at any cost, but in some ways, it hurts because it does feel isolating and alone. I get that being alone is one of the costs of telling the truth in this world. How do ya'll handle this?
Yup, it is 100% acknowledging the bad and the ugly and working on cleaning that junk controlling us out of the world for a way better future for all. Many want to stick head in sand and keep pretending they saw notin, heard notin and don't like to be reminded of it, would rather ignore it until they can no longer do so. I got a "You are so negative" once and I laughed and said, na, just doing my part to make sure it all comes to the light for everyone to even know that it is there in the first place, quietly chipping at everyone's life and making the world a worse place to be alive in. Same as they keep screeching how MAGA people are hateful for those who do not personally know someone who follow MAGA as a way to do the cleaning up. I am a very positive person in general, always happy to help out, even the little things like an elderly lady having hard time putting her groceries onto the belt or trying to reach across it to get the lil divider, round up step ladder to climb into neighbor's window to let her in when she locked herself out. Everyday things, someone around me struggling, no problem dropping what am doing to give a quick hand.
