People that are unkind in the world are the most unkind to themselves.
This points to how important it is to understand and care about others when we interact with them. This doesn't mean sympathize or condone poor behavior. It means, as Mel Robbins would say, "Let them" and use your natural born gift of compassion to see for a moment how miserable and awful it must be to live with themselves and the harshness they must be a part of consistently every day. I call that mental torture.
When we encounter individuals who treat us negatively, whether they are people we come across in our daily lives or those we are connected to by birth or circumstance, it is crucial to respond with understanding and kindness. By showing empathy towards those who exhibit unkind behavior, we not only demonstrate our own strength (not be like them) and character, and we also have the power to potentially change their perspective and behavior. (be sure there's no motive to change then or an expectation or desire)
In a world where negativity and hostility can often prevail, choosing to respond with empathy and compassion can have a profound impact on both ourselves and those around us.
Operating from compassion is so much easier than operating from anger or judgement
