Respect The POV (Point of View)

I consider myself to be somewhat intelligent, but there are some things that are beyond my understanding. Why is it that whenever something good or positive happens, almost immediately after...here comes the negativity?!!!



Although I don't quite understand why things are this way, especially in relationships, I have learned to not give in to the negative energy trying to invade my positive atmosphere. I understand that both people in a relationship will have differences of opinion on various topics. In spite of this, both parties must be respectful of one another's point of view (POV). Respecting is not the same as agreeing with or accepting as your own, but merely accepting the other persons right to have a point of view. I don't mind, initially, listening to another's pov, and if I disagree I can say so respectfully and walk away. I will never attempt to force my opinions on another, but I also will never allow anyone to trample my own personal opinion. Also, I have learned to not get into unnecessary arguments over different pov. It's a complete waste of time and usually a battle of egos. I love and welcome respectful dialogue, but I have nothing to prove to anyone.


If a person can respectfully show me how my pov is flawed I will gladly reassess my thoughts. I'm not a know it all by any means, but I will not give up my stance until something has been presented to show me I'm wrong. I will not be made to feel bad because of what I believe.
