I once had a English teacher in high school who told me that if something is not going to be important in 5 minutes, don’t bother fighting about it cause it only makes things worse in the long run. And to this day I have followed that rule as much as I could and it has saved me alot of pain. And why would you want to fight with someone you love and care about if after 5 minutes whatever you were fighting about doesn’t even matter anyways. You would have just wasted all your energy and time on something that isn’t even long lasting and to me that is a waste. I would rather be happy and relaxed and not fighting with my loved ones then stressed for those few minutes of argument and find I got nothing out of it, except hurting someones feelings and then feeling bad about it after. So why bother? Why make such a big fuss over something that isn’t going to get me anywhere anyways. And life is way too short to fight over small trivial things and it makes life way easier when you aren’t so tense about silly small things and are enjoying what you have as you will never really know when you might leave this earth, so you might as well have as peaceful of a life as you possibly can and not worry about the small stuff.
