About This Quote
You cannot control other people’s actions, but you can control how you react to it. The power to choose the way you act is for all of us. You must choose to react in a certain way or another. It is your choice.
If you want to be nice all the time, then be nice. If you wish to disagree with someone’s opinion, then do that. If you wish to say something that may hurt someone’s feelings, then do that.
You can choose to react in a certain way or another.
