Send us Fan Mail English lesson application (with Jale): https://forms.gle/RGS9xwfLHXRRnmaQ9 For checking the transcript: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2379282 When something uncomfortable appears inside us, what is our first reaction? Sadness? Make it go away. Anxiety? Distract yourself. Disappointment? Try to think positively. Anger? Calm down immediately. We have become very good at asking: “How can I feel better?” But maybe that is not always the first question we need.

In other words, if one person gives something — effort, respect, support, honesty — the other person should usually give something too. It shouldn’t all come from one side. Example: Imagine you share an apartment with someone. You usually wash the ...

Send us Fan Mail English lesson application (with Jale): https://forms.gle/RGS9xwfLHXRRnmaQ9 For checking the transcript: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2379282 A last resort is the final option you use when everything else has failed—or when there really isn’t another good choice left. Example: 1- Imagine your neighbour keeps playing loud music late at night. At first, you ignore it. Then you speak to them politely. You even leave a friendly note. But nothing changes.

It’s a warm way to remind someone that they’re not alone—and that one mistake doesn’t define them.
