Frivolous

People can sometimes be amusing

As can frivolous events

Times where things are not serious

However frivolity can sink into crass behavior quite quickly

Then it is no longer amusing

We have all been present when behavior goes beyond what we feel acceptable

What do you do?

Look away, pretend not to hear

Pretend not to see

Ignore it

Then if it is repeated or continues

What do you do?

Tells a lot about you

Tells a lot about any of us

In life there are many things we cannot prepare for

There are others we can

Behavior getting out of hand is one where if we know ourselves we can react immediately as and how the situation demands

This is truer when we are clear with ourselves

When we know without any doubt what is and what is not acceptable

Then we act as we feel is appropriate

Our life journey prepares us to some extent

Our moral and ethical values the rest

Then it is up to us

Are you clear with yourself?

Can you respond reasonably?

Even with humor?

Without anger or frustration?

Be clear when things go beyond the frivolous

Action is usually needed even if it s merely to move away

Sometimes though it might demand that you take a stance

Do you have the courage?

Be prepared because the time will come when you will find yourself in such a situation
