It used to frighten me to not have a response to things. I felt stupid and slow witted when I didn't have a quick comeback to taunts, insults or accusations.
It just occurred to me: I had no response because it neither resonated nor triggered me. We live in a world where people seem to have answers to absolutely everything. Now I know it's out of insecurities that they're so defensive, thus quick to defend; they practice that shit in their head constantly. I didn't. I either didn't resonate with the accusation or I agreed with the insecurity the accusation highlighted.
Can't argue against what I believe to be true. I did learn how to soften my self judgement, however, so I could make my way to alchemizing the quality I was insecure about. For example: I may have believed myself fat and unattractive. I could admit, however that men whistled at me when I walked down the street, so I could not be completely unattractive. From there I could move into; I must be somewhat attractive. Then I could move into; I am attractive. Now it's; yeah, I know. Thanks for noticing 😉
And wow! I am suddenly quick witted as fuck🙏🎉
