No More Offense

To see ourselves positively, we tend to put others down so that we can feel good in comparison.

When we are insecure and don’t know the truth about ourselves we will do what is necessary to make up the difference. In many cases, to make ourselves feel good we put others down. We try to bring others down to make us feel better. The answer is to find the truth, not facts, or what others have said about us. Often times, someone will offend us, because we don’t know the truth.  When this happens we will put them down to self-medicate our hurts. People are so easily offended today. We all so concerned about what others think, but we don’t have any idea of what really matters. No one has given us the truth, so now we all say the truth hurts. So does a shot when you are sick, but it helps in the healing process. Instead of being offended by what others say, let’s learn the truth about who we are. Those that know the truth are much less likely to be offended. Are you easily offended today?
