We do know better and there is no excuse for it. And it's it's petty. and it's immature. And if we look at it from an evolutionary anthropological perspective, you had to think about self-preservation in order to survive. And I like what you're saying about the strongest, fittest man, the one who could provide food, is how you would survive. That's deeply rooted in our DNA.

Well, you also had to survive based on the community. So when I look at it from that lens in terms of social media, which has become too permissive to focus on self-preservation, versus am I treating someone with kindness? Am I treating someone the way I would wish to be treated? And that goes back to the self-awareness. Well, social media has allowed us to not be self-aware.

It's given us permission. If I'm going to look at it from a Jungian psychoanalytic lens, it's given us permission to hide behind a mask. And what is the persona that I'm going to put out? But is that persona rooted in am I thinking about how to help someone else or is it rooted in how do I help myself in order to survive?

I'm sorry that happened because it's really a reflection of how she feels about herself. Oh, clearly. I mean, yeah. No, I figured that out. People with character, people with integrity don't go around intentionally wishing to destroy other people. And based on my own experiences of having overt aggression for something I did not do is really about...

somebody who is jealous and intimidated and desperately wants what you have. Because people like you that have light, that speak truth, people who don't have that want that. And we live in this culture now that is permissive to be cruel. We live in this culture where now it is accessible to be unkind. And it really takes strength and it takes being brave to say, eh, Don't care. Don't need that.

I'm going to stand up to that.

Great question. When do I walk away? So I talk about, is this in alignment with my authentic self? If I choose to be associated or engage with this person, am I honoring my authentic self? Does the energy flow? And we all know friendship is about mutual trust, respect, and communication. So you have to weigh, is this worth having a conversation where there can be a repair or

Or do you consider the source and say, am I suffering a fool? And do I protect myself by having a boundary and walking away? So I always look at what is the longevity of the friendship? Has there been shared mutual experiences that have bonded us in trust and respect and admiration? And if I can say yes, then I say yes. You go to a friend and say yes. This is what I perceived happened.
