You must always remember, that what other people think of you is not just none of your business, it's completely beside the point. It truly doesn't matter what others think of you. What does matter is what you're doing, how you're acting, and who you want to be around. And focusing on that will change your life.
... An unexpected side effect of this perspective is that other people's "mind games" won't distract you. And when you take these people at their word and at face value, they tend to get confused. Which is fun to watch.
Sober chicken also counsels: it's OK to be tired and sad, as long as you keep doing what you need to do every day. And at some point, after you've accepted that your happiness is orbiting a distant star, you'll realize that you're having a fantastic afternoon!
Speaking of distant stars, my daughter came to the conclusion today that since there's no way that "bad guys" could live in our city, they must have driven in from a different planet. I asked her what planet that could be and she answered,"Star Wars."
And now, upon witnessing bad behavior, I can say:
"What!? Did you just drive in from the planet Star Wars?!"
