Reaction to situation matters a lot

I have woken up many times reminding myself that in another life I could have made a legendary life coach or psychiatrist. I tend to have this keen eye on almost everything that happens around me and give my time a reasonable time before making a conclusion or sort of judgement. I for instance witnessed a kid spit in the face of a playmate one weekend. They were playing by a pool of water on a roadside next to my farm. Despite my shock I managed to restrain my self -tongue and all, to see what would unfold. I was bewildered to see the kid whose face had been spat on fake a cry. The offender quickly wiped of the saliva using her palm and begged the playmate for forgiveness. I of course intruded and warned the offender against playing such kind of games. However deep inside of me, I was left with a lot to ponder and I found myself with something worth noting down. Had the offended reacted roughly, surely some kind of altercation might have resulted!

It seems it is wise to not react to aggression at times.
This is sad that happened to the kid though.
