Generally speaking, try to accept as people the way they are - try not to be so unforgiving[?] No ones perfect but if a person has love in their heart? That's always something to gravitate towards.
Accept the good with the bad...
Does that make sense @ rdgrad15? |
Yep, makes perfect sense. Yeah no one is perfect, you basically have to outweigh the good from the bad and if they are truly a caring person, then usually their venting is just out of pure anger, annoyance, or in some cases, if they are warning you about someone they know is not a good person to be around and you are clueless about it. But yeah, we have to accept the good with the bad and not be as unforgiving. And in terms of mitigation, yeah honestly we all do it to an extent. Some of us, like I said, out of pure frustration or anger and it is just a form of venting, while others do it with malicious intent. That's what we have to look for. What is their intent behind their venting. That's what we need to look out for.
