What if I went to a loving family gathering and overheard a person bad-mouthing someone that I love?

What if I wanted to hurry over to some of the other people at the party and begin bad-mouthing that “bad” bad-mouther but as I was on my way to begin this, I caught myself and thought, “I will then be the same as the person I am annoyed with,” and I changed my thinking and went on to have a good and positive time?
