Sometimes people say things that feel like verbal knifes in the back and even after the knife falls out the wound remains.

Anything or anyone has power to make you happy or sad only until you give it/them importance or power to do it…Try working on taking back the importance/power you gave them and you’ll see the changes gradually(it’s a slow process but works, done it myself 😉)…And then the question of how can you do that arises🤔Just think why you gave them the power or importance and were/are they really worth it…
