The tongue has no bones but it is strong enough to break a heart. So be careful with your words.
If you yourself are the one who has been unkind, it is time for self-reflection. Why do you attack people? What are you trying to protect yourself from? If you see and know the wrong in your actions and behavior and brush it off then there is something very very wrong with your heart.
Remember: Allah loves the doers of good.
The Qur’an was revealed by Allah in order for mankind to be guided. “And speak to him with gentle speech that perhaps he may be reminded or fear [Allah].” – The Holy Quran 20:44
Sometimes you’re on top of the world, stay humble. Sometimes you’ve hit a low, stay hopeful. But don’t let the circumstances change you into something you are not. Learning how to speak the words boiling inside of you, without burning your throat is an art. Become an artist, but be yourself.
Of course like with the most important things in life, nothing is that simple. Ever.
While we all experience extreme highs and lows that affect all of us in different ways and how we express it is up to each person individually. Obviously, you can slip too far to one end of an emotional scale, but as long as you can balance it out at the end of the day, month or year, you’ll be good, right?
That’s how I see it, at least. Life is all about finding balance. Total cliche, I know.
Rudeness is not the answer to everything, you can’t change the situation by being rude to others. Human psychology says we punish others by what we go through by being ferocious to them, But No! No! No!
We punish ourselves. With enough time and effort, you will begin to see the pattern in your unkind behavior and its link to your own anger at yourself.
Once you can home in on your feelings about yourself, you can begin to make conscious decisions to be kind to others instead of lashing out as a coping mechanism.
I have always unfalteringly held the belief that people are inherently good, and only do bad things in reaction to bad situations.
The most important thing to remember, whether you are receiving or giving unkindness, is that you are inherently good, too, and deserve to be loved, no matter what you or someone else tells you.
Remember “Each of us has lived through some devastation, some loneliness, some whether superstorms or spiritual superstorm. When we look at each other we must say, I understand. I understand how you feel because I’ve been there myself. We must support each other because each of us is more alike than we are unalike.” -RHS
