Just focus on the good people, anyone giving out bad vibes should be avoided. Fortunately they are few but do exist.😊

So true. Although sometimes things turned out to be different from what I assumed...

I once met a woman who had low self-esteem and believed that she was not worth it. By unconsciously projecting a negative image, others avoided her. As a result, like a self-fulfilling prophecy, she was confirmed in her belief that she was not worth it. By still being nice to her, she thawed out and turned out to be one of the nicest persons I have ever met.

A few years later we got married.

I understand being cautious as to what you surround yourself with.

However someone else being sad, or angry, or negative do not mean that I have to be the same.

I have walked many steps with people whom I may not have picked if I had the chance to, some became camino friends and some I left with a wave at the next bar.

I love how the Camino is an interesting melting pot of all sorts of people from different places, and stages in life.

Some of the more memorable people I met who's conversations lingered were the ones I 'left' at the bar!
