What's beef?
Beef is when you need two gats to go to sleep
Beef is when your moms ain't safe up in the streets
Beef is when I see you
Guaranteed to be in I-C-U

Beef is when you make your enemies start your Jeep
Beef is when you roll no less than thirty deep

I Am (rather I can be) laid back and unruffled. I try not to take anything too personal; I also try to avoid absorbing others negativity. Statistics have shown that 63.48% of the time when others are upset with you it has very little to do with you. I watched Ted Lasso S03 EP9 this morning. Isaac charges into the stands after a fan screams derogatory language towards him. After, at a press conference, Roy is asked if he condoned Isaac’s behavior and why he reacted in that way. He showed love and allowed grace in his response because he understands that his reaction was rooted in his own pain i.e., feeling criticized, disapproved of, unimportant, helpless, and instinctively he wanted to pull others into that suffering.

Please note: According to the official figures 63.48% of all statistics are totally worthless. 

We can be responsible for our negativity, recognize that you will be tempted to react and in fact take it very personal based on what is unresolved in ourselves.

Don’t.

The best revenge is not needing revenge. Friends who have argued lose sight of what bought them together, they genuinely like and value each other. This isn’t a be a BIGger person post because we also understand that friendships end. I watched a video of someone explaining if an argument isn’t  relationship ending, it ain’t that BIG and can be solved.

Contentions happen, even between good friends. Afterwards, you can’t expect to solve things right away or solve them at all. Don’t lose sight of the fact that you like(d) this person. We can forgive others, but we don’t have to have a relationship with them to prove that there is forgiveness.

Peace is proof that we have forgiven, not a new relationship.
