Translated…
After work, I’d taken the advantage of the time before my husband and my children arrive home, to clean up the house. In the quiet of the streets, I’d heard, two pedestrians down below, arguing.
A complained a bit to B, B called out to A angrily, “Why must you react so forcefully? You can say it, in a milder way you know!”, A replied, “It’s because of the tone of your voice, and your attitude, that’s made me upset, that, was why I’d replied back to you like that”.
I was shocked, especially as I’d heard A’s replies to B, it’d reminded me of how often I’d taken that tone of annoyance when I’d talked to my families, but, as I’d gotten that unfriendly reply from my son, I’d gotten, so angered, and blame him for using that bad attitude when he’d talked to me, but without knowing where it’d all, come from.
Was I not like, B downstairs?
At work, I would work hard, to keep my manners, but, after a long hard day’s of work, as I returned home, I’d, forgotten about needing to treat my loved ones the same too. I had, learned, a lesson today: don’t take work home, but, do still, bring the art of communication you’d used at work, home.
So, this must’ve, come as a shocker to you, as you realized, how the people arguing downstairs sounded like you, and, it’s easy, for us, to show all the negative emotions to our loved ones, because we feel safe with them, but that still doesn’t mean, that it’s right, to voice your displeasures, your upsets, to your family members every time you’d felt like it.
