I had a family member tell me my calmness is annoying in the midst of whatever is going on. Imagine people being triggered by good qualities?! I’m surprised by this comment from this family member. So I took it as a test for how I would respond. We are going through something that the process just has to play out but everyone is doing the best they can. I told this person that if they’re riled up, it’s not going to be beneficial for me to be as well. Plus it causes stress and wrinkles and doesn’t change anything for the better. People will often want you to be performative and react to things in a way that they think is acceptable given the situation. It doesn’t mean I don’t care but I direct my energy on the things I can change. I’m just a calm person even under pressure and I think it’s one of my superpowers. 😉
