Someone unfriended me today. My feelings are hurt. But in reality, who cares about my feelings? The world is not about me or my feelings. We all need to learn this. That post you just read is not about you and you dont have to agree with it. (This post isnt about you (solely) either, so get over it.) For what its worth, heres how I operate in case you think it might work for you: In my friends list you will find almost every kind of person. I dont (or at least I try not to) discriminate based on, well, anything. My policy is NEVER to unfriend anyone, even the kid who repeatedly posts the f word or the person who shares 25 memes every night. Plenty of people post things that offend me and hurt me. Ill never tell them publicly, but I might share my feelings in private message if I am deeply hurt. The posts are not directed toward me or my loved ones (and so what if they were?), so I dont take them personally. Instead, I find the good and am enriched by what I can learn from observation and interaction. The atheist has much to teach me and deepens my faith. The new mothers elation of her childs every accomplishment brings back happy memories. The angst of the one who grieves helps me process my own grief. The person passionate about their issue inspires me to be passionate as well. Theyre all loved, they all matter, and they all bless me... even the f-word kid LOL
