This is one I often think of too. You can’t reason with an abuser….. so don’t try.
“Listen, and understand! That Terminator is out there! It can’t be bargained with. It can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear”
Yes exactly! this quote is demonstrating acceptance with what is rather than attempting at modifying it, giving us the possibility to pick our fights.
My fight goes by Socrates (credit to Fizzy’s post);
‘The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new.’
The way of the peaceful warrior 😉
