There ARE Witches in Santeria. After all a Witch is just a wise one....and Santerian High Priests/Essa are wise.

I suppose you would just let it go, unless it was REALLY REALLY REALLY bad... in which case action as deemed necessary in any ones eyes would be used.

I tend to examine why it is upsetting to me.

It would depend really. I try not to let things upset me because I have what I call a flash temper. I'll be pissed off for a few minutes then I'm OK. So I try to be really careful.

If I can, I try to do something about it like having a conversation with the person and let them know they have upset me and why. If I can't, then I just try to put it behind me. Water off a duck's back.

I keep my mouth shut until I can be by myself to analyze the reasons why I was upset and then decide if I need to take appropriate action, or just let it go, or even if maybe I was overreacting. I try my best not to get wound up and react in the heat of the moment.

I was just in this situation last Friday where someone at work kept saying things that were really not necessary and were pushing my buttons - but luckily it was the end of the day so I could clock out and leave shortly after the incidents. The whole drive home I grumbled to myself, but it was better than snapping and saying something to the coworker at the time. I thought about it for a little bit that evening, and let it go until Monday morning when I could have a calm and rational discussion with the supervisor about the uncalled for "attack" I was under before leaving on Friday.

I just calm down, confront the person if necessary, and get over it.

*sigh* Witch does not mean "wise one" and never has. "Wizard" has better claim to association with "wise" than the word "witch."

A witch is simply a practitioner of witchcraft. If someone doesn't practice witchcraft, they will probably be offended if you call them a witch.

Most often what I do when someone really upsets me is a vent to my husband. Also, if there's something I can do about the upsetting situation, I try and rectify it. If there's nothing I can do, I try to let it go best I can.
