In life, we often encounter situations where people may try to bring us down or hurt us in some way. It could be through hurtful words, actions, or even just their negative energy. However, it is important to remember that we are in control of how we react to these situations. We have the power to not let people get to us, to not give them the power to affect our emotions and well-being.

It can be easy to let others' words and actions affect us, to allow them to pull the trigger and hurt us. But by taking control of our emotions and reactions, we can prevent them from having that power over us. We can choose to not give them the gun, to not let their negativity and toxicity seep into our lives.

One way to do this is by practicing self-awareness and self-care. By being aware of our own emotions and triggers, we can better understand how to protect ourselves from negative influences. This may involve setting boundaries with toxic people, practicing self-love and self-compassion, and surrounding ourselves with positive and supportive individuals.

It is also important to remember that we cannot control the actions of others, but we can control how we respond to them. By choosing to respond with grace, kindness, and understanding, we can diffuse potentially harmful situations and prevent them from escalating.

Ultimately, it is up to us to take charge of our own well-being and happiness. We have the power to not let people get to us, to not give them the gun to hurt us. By staying true to ourselves, practicing self-care, and choosing our reactions wisely, we can protect ourselves from the negativity of others and live a more peaceful and fulfilling life.
