Hurt People
Feb 01, 2025
Your boss is a JERK 😤
Impossible colleague. 🙄
Working with real live actual humans can sometimes be a lot. 😩
Sometimes they…
😡 Get angry with you
👉 Blame you
🙃 Take you for granted
💥 Attack you
It doesn’t make a lot of sense. 🤷♂️
Except it does. 🤔
Any human that has ever walked the earth knows what it’s like to get hurt. 💔
We can get hurt in all sorts of ways: spiritually 🙏, emotionally 😢, physically 🩹, psychologically 🧠…
For better or worse, especially when we get hurt a lot - one reaction is to hurt others. The hope is that if we hurt others first, we’ll get hurt less.
In caveman times? Sure - maybe that worked sometimes. 🪓🐒
Almost always today - it’s old wiring. It doesn’t work that way anymore. 🛑
And yet we still have the wiring. ⚙️
The opportunity: realize the next time somebody lashes out at you, they’re just injured. 🩹💔
It might be an injury they don’t even realize they have. 🤷
It might be an injury from a long time ago. ⏳
They’re not bad, they’re just hurt. 😔
While it may not be your job to heal them.
When you want to, you can offer compassion.
