Trigger happy!
In all of our encounters with others, a trigger can occur. It's not quite a reaction, but it triggers something in the mind. It inspires! It joins up some dots!
Now depending on one's attitude and understanding, this may happen sometimes or be quite frequent. Another word for this is 'learning'.
This is why we need one another, to bounce ideas off. It's not so much the ideas, but it may show a fresh approach. That's if a big fat ego of pride isn't in the way!
If we actually want to learn about ourselves, then these triggers are the best things ever. Anything that expands our view must be of benefit. Of course there could be a slight discomfort as one has to let go of a previous approach, or maybe it can be seen as an upgrade.
If we merely argue about something we see as untrue, we are only giving that untruth...legs!..which it does not deserve.
Every encounter is an opportunity. One day you may realise, “Hey I don't react anymore!” That will make you happy. Hm..”I can turn this into a positive event.”
Be trigger happy!
