Mean Girls

Ironically, 'Mean Girls' is my favorite movie- hands down. BUT there isnt a thing I hate more than actual mean girls or just mean people in general. Recently a girl got into a fight with me over something so pety, and now when I talk to her it takes all of my energy to not snap back. People know me for being really nice all the time but I feel like when I'm ever in an arguement or a fight they take that as a a sign of weakness. It's not that im weak or have fear it's just that I strongly believe in being nice to people even when they've been cold to you. I think that takes more courage and only strong people can actually be able to do this. However, its hard... when people make you cry its only a natural reaction to say something back to defend youself but thats not always right. After hearing more malicious things from this girl I decided to take some advice from one of my bestfriends. She told me......
 And she was exactly right. Life is way too short. Dont waste your time criticizing someone or trying to drag someone down because even if you hate the person you will always be the bigger person when you give them a smile and move on. Then they'll feel like a complete moron.
