The Best Attitude to Take

The best attitude to take when misunderstood,
Is one that protects your happiness.
Showing respect to those ignorant...
Will always have them depict that act as weak.
And to leave them alone will have you rumored,
As arrogant.
However...
To keep your peace of mind intact,
Distrust those who say your wellbeing is of their interest.
Since the only time these people are seen is at someone's repast!
