Those momentts in life wheliterally feel defeated come quite often as a surprise. We are never prepared for being at the loss of words, drenched with feelings of grief, sadness, overwhelming anxiety and unsure of what the future might bring, We feel so even if sometimes, some battles seem to be the ones we won. But is that an actual fact?
The best way to assess it is through relationships and the state of them. The battles have costed you dearly - misunderstandings, judgment which is unfair, a sense of isolation and loss of trust - to yourself, to others.
But is it the objective fact to see things this way? Or maybe an appriopriate question would be to realign yourself again and see things from the perspective: Have I been to stubborn to admit that I wanted my perspective to be the most valid, belittling the others, and not giving them the chance to express their stance?
Picking your battles seems like an advice and a notion that can help you to be more at ease with what is happening in your life. And lives of those you are connected to.
Brooding longer and trying to prove you were right brings more challenges to your relationships and invites less and less common sense in coming to any sorts of agreements.
Let yourself be disillusioned. After all a failure can also be a powerful lesson towards wisdom.
