WHEN DID BEING CRUEL BECOME COMFORTABLE?? Who’s putting up with that s**t??

Not dramatic cruelty, casual cruelty
Sarcasm that cuts deep
Silence that punishes

We’ve mastered image, we’ve mastered performance but we’ve forgotten compassion❣️

Most don’t want truth, they want to win
They want to be right
They want validation more than they want connection … and they justify it in whatever way they can 🤷🏻‍♀️

Toughness without compassion isn’t strength, it’s ego and anything that involves ego never wins!

Humanity is restraint, it’s accountability without humiliation, and it’s holding a boundary without destroying someone else in the process…how can anything be worth hurting others?

I’ve experienced this first hand..being on the receiving end , it’s hurtful & disappointing. I’ve learned to pity those who don’t believe in humanity, their thought process is warped & clearly very insecure!

So before you react, pause
Before you judge, breathe

Because if we can’t lead with humanity, what exactly are we leading with???
