There are a few “sentences” that make up some of my core beliefs. They are kinda ingrained into me. These thoughts have kept coming back to me for years.

“Love everyone and treat them with respect”

“We are all humans. Each and every person I meet has a life as complicated as my own”

“Go out of your way to ascribe good intentions to people or assume people are trying to be nice unless proven otherwise”

There’s probably more and if I remember more I’ll try to include them here.

When someone ignores any of these core beliefs it frustrates me because of how “obvious” or ingrained they are to me. I’m not perfect at these but I try hard.
