Most of us react to whatever is not immediately understood by us, or if we feel that we are offended in some way, or threatened
- we REACT.
This is what an animal does, an animal reacts; it is the
fight or flight response to something they do not understand, i.e. their
instinct tells them to act this way, re-act -> counter act.
Humans who have not been educated into the awareness of
being totally different from animals, i.e. that they have a free will and they
create their life, do not understand for the most part the difference between
reacting and responding.
Responding is when you use your mind, when you think for a
moment what the situation is all about and what the meaning is of the situation
(you yourself created for yourself in order to learn more about yourself). This is when you open your mouth and close it again and say nothing. Just think for a moment.
I learned this from one of my mentors who explained the
difference between reacting and responding - brilliant! Are you going to take
that on? Are you willing to look at your reacting to things, situations and ask
yourself:
Hmmmm, what can learn from this? How can I prevent this?
What is the best solution here?
Most of the time when you react, you burn your bridges in some way. What you say is usually harsher than you intended - it is a defense mechanism that you can change, if you want to.

Trust me, it takes time, yet it can be done; you and I can
do it, just observe yourself.
You will discover that when you hold your breath for a moment, think, really think, leave the emotions out of the situation, you are far better of. The emotions cause you to react, it is instinct - you do not want to be harmed in any way. But do you want to harm the other.
You will discover that you will have less stress when you respond, you feel happier, and proud of yourself that you handled that situation like a mature person.
It is also better for your health; reacting sets your entire body up for the flight, every part of your body is in more or less ways flooded with adrenaline. Ever felt warm or hot when you reacted to something? Observe yourself. That is your body getting ready to take action.
Do you really need all that adrenaline in your bloodstream, is the situation really that bad? Don't let a simple situation get out of hand, because your reaction calls for a reaction from the other side as well, and soon this all escalades and nobody is really happy with that.
When you respond, think, you feel in control, happy, and what you do is you create a chemical juice in your body aka Happy Life Juice, that enhances the wellbeing of your cells, i.e. your entire body. Reacting does the opposite, especially if you do it often enough it will erode the wellbeing of your cells, leading eventually to dis-ease in your body.

So let's do it, let's become a better person, not only for
ourselves, but also for those who are around us, like our kids, family, friends
or co-workers. Are we not on this planet to help others? With whatever it takes
to create a better life and have more joy?
This is the start of that - go for it, you will notice
dramatic shifts in your life, for the better.
