More About Them

When others make their business yours

If someone’s angry at you for what seems like minuscule reasons, it says more about them than about you.

Leave it at that.

For now at least. If there is some truth behind their argument, then sure, take it on board. But if there isn’t, forgive them, then politely back away and let them get on with their thing.

Or, if you can do anything to alleviate their problem, try that.

It’s more about them, after all.
