Helen Mirren once said: “Before you argue with someone, ask yourself if that person is even mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective. Because if not, thereโs absolutely no point.
Not every debate is worth your energy. Sometimes, no matter how clearly you express yourself, the other person isn’t listening to understand โ they’re listening to react. Theyโre locked inside their own beliefs, unwilling to even consider another point of view. Engaging with them only drains you.
Thatโs the difference between a meaningful conversation and a pointless argument.
Talking to someone open to growth and understanding can be enlightening โ even if you donโt agree. But trying to reason with someone who refuses to see beyond their own convictions? Itโs like talking to a brick wall. No amount of logic or truth will reach them โ not because youโre wrong, but because theyโre unwilling to see anything else.
Maturity isn’t about winning arguments. Itโs about recognizing when the argument just isnโt worth it. Itโs choosing peace over proving a point to someone whoโs already decided not to change their mind.”
You donโt have to fight every battle. You donโt owe everyone an explanation.
Sometimes, the strongest thing you can do is walk away โ not because you have nothing to say, but because you know theyโre not ready to listen. And thatโs not your burden to carry.
This is a decision you will think ,overthink,regret,discuss and blame yourself and others about.But if you did it ,it was meant to be.
Even this shall pass is a wise way of looking at life.Its difficult to remember when you are right in the middle of the chaos.
Thats why you must choose your peace first.If you have inner war ,the outer war follows.Listen carefully.Your soul is whispering right in your ear.You just need to pay attention .
Sometimes you wonder why the right thing is difficult to explain. Why being righteous is never easy.Why self doubt is a part of growth.Why letting go and walking away
But it’s going to be hard.I have a difficult time doing everything I have written about.But the first step is knowing that and accepting that .
Thank you for reading till the end.
