To understand others and react in ways that consider their perspectives is an act of love. In a world that values to-do lists, professional facades, and efficiency at the cost of humanity, acts of love are true rebellion.
But in such a world, you must be conscious of the treasure that is yourself. Be loving. Be kind to an extent that people start recognizing kindness as your superpower. But be brave in the times you must stand up for yourself.
A good rule of thumb is to be boldly empathetic until you notice disrespect toward yourself or others. In that moment, be courageous and voice yourself with confidence, even if you’re the only one. Don’t allow yourself to be pulled under, and save others from the same when you can.
To be truly fearless is to balance love and valour.
