What’s really happening when we are offended by someone?

We're really saying "What you think about me is more important that what I think about me."

For some reason, we decide that the negative opinion of someone that is not based in fact is worthy of our focus, time, and energy, which is so limited in life. The people that take time in their lives to put you down are most definitely in a hard time in their own life and have some big issues that they're dealing with.

We can live without being offended when we realize the truth about who we are and where we're going. Someone that is continually putting you down, telling you that you're "less than," has no right to your precious time and energy. Don't give them power, allowing their thoughts, words or actions to be come an offense, thus controlling your next actions and feelings. Simply disregard their words and actions letting them slide off of you "like water on a ducks back."
