"Dogs never bite me- just humans."
-Marilyn Monroe
I am sure that this quote probably means something else, but the way I see it is that dogs don't bite as often as humans. Humans don't bite literally, but we bite with our words and our actions. We sometimes don't think before we speak, and we say things that are hurtful or wrong. Sometimes we actually mean what we say, but it still hurts another person. We can also bite in our actions. Sometimes we are careless or in a bad mood and we just push someone or hurt someone physically. Again, other times we actually mean it. Humans can get to be very destructive, whether we mean it or not. Either way, we need to learn to control ourselves. Maybe then we can not bite as hard as we used to, or even better, not bite at all. Bites and scratches take a long time to heal. Since we have all been bitten, you know how that feels. Another great skill is to learn how to let it roll off of your shoulders and those bites might not even cause more than a scrape! This is a great skill that even adults struggle with. I don't know what more to say other than practice not letting it get to you. Don't engage in arguments in the first place. And especially try not to bite.
