I've seen a lot of negativity in the blogging world lately: hard work being copied, negative comments being made and it led me to think, what happened to just being nice? I mean, after all aren't we all trying to achieve the same thing?
Being nice means trying to get on even though there are differences between people that may never be overcome. It means being kind at small moments even when there is no personal advantage on offer.
At its most basic understanding, being nice is about caring for others around you, wanting the best for them, and recognising their same wants, needs, aspirations, and even fears. Being nice is warm, resilient, patient, trusting, loyal, and grateful. Being nice frees us from getting knotted up in negative attitudes and feelings such as resentment, jealousy, suspicion, and manipulation.
It is nice to be nice but in being nice to everyone else...do not forget to be nice to yourself.
Anyone been dealing with negativity lately? How do you deal with it?
