let me start this off by saying i have a lot of respect for women. They have to undergo immense amounts of stress, pain and agony in their everyday lives but are still happy.
Why am i writing about his, well one of my closest friends whom we will call Jess, was talking to me about women’s periods, basically what happens and how it affects them mentally too. I had never thought of women thoroughly for going through this process, i didn’t consider in my mind that they go through this every month, and is a quite gross experience during, before and after. Basically what Jess has taught me is a higher respect for girls and women, though i won’t treat my girl-friends too differently due to circumstances like this, it is important to acknowledge that this is something they go through.
This can also be applied to any situation, before you respond to another in a negative way, take a moment to consider what is happening in their life which could of led them to act this way. Granted it is not okay to let them get away with it, but this stepping back will allow for more structured and calm responses.
