something i try to remind myself of often, and i don't know, maybe it would be good for other people to do this too but i'm not trying to tell you how to live your life
is that if i read a general call out post for people that do a certain thing
and it's a thing that i do
but then as they describe that person, what they're describing isn't me
rather than get twisted up about what a misinterpretation of me they've made, about how actually i don't do anything like what you're talking about, and maybe you're being unreasonable and antagonistic
i think, "oh
"i'm not the person they're talking about
"who ever that is."
basically
but genuine
