Kill Them With Kindness

When I would get picked on, my grandmother would tell me "don't get mad, just kill them with kindness." Now being young at the time, I didn't know what she meant by that. If Suzy Q just called me a mean name I wasn't going to give her a hug and let it be. I thought "killing with kindness" was the worst idea I had ever heard. Well, I am older now, and I realize that what she had told me is actually the best advice I had ever been given.

When some girl is trying to start drama by spreading rumors or calling me out in public, I just brush it off my shoulders, put on a smile and go about my day. When I do this, one of two things will happen. 1) she will either let the drama go and move on with her life; or 2) she will get upset that she didn't faze me and begin to start more drama. I will again not say anything to her. And she will continue to start drama. Eventually, someone will say "You know, Suzy Q... you are so rude to Kaileigh all the time and I have never even heard her say anything to you. You need to grow up Suzy Q!" The second option will show the world how childish and lame that person really is.

I rarely talk back to someone when they say hurtful things to me. I just don't really care what other people think of me. Some things should just be forgotten. Life is too short to spend it worry about who likes me, who said what, or what the latest gossip is. There are, however, a few subjects that are off-limits. If you bring up one of those subjects, you will no doubt get an earful and maybe even a fist in the face.

Kill people with kindness. If they don't leave you alone, it will at least piss them off!! Haha!
