sometimes it’s okay to let people burn

I had multiple variations of this idea, all drafted in my notes.

I wanted to release them daily but this is integral thoughts, most stories i share here won’t always have definitive plots, you must embark on your own journey for meaning.

I gave someone advice recently, as i look back at it, it could’ve been my tone or my mode of phrasing, she didn’t like it too well and lashed out in fury.

I read the situation and tendered an apology.

My mind whispers, “so much for feedback.” It could’ve been my fault, I’ll never really know.

What i know? If i kept shut I could’ve avoided some insults, probably had my pride intact too.

Sometimes it’s alright to let people be.

Some people, you are bound to help, others, to observe their plight.

I read that not giving doesn’t mean you’re a bad person, and the same goes with this.

Choosing not to interfere sometimes doesn’t make you bad, it’s okay to be an observer.

Ps: learned recently that if someone gave you feedback, do not defend yourself but simply ask why. If someone tells me they don’t like my newsletter, I’ll ask them why(after insulting their poor taste ;)
