You know, one of the choices we have in life is to in how we perceive the information that comes to us…
We can choose to have compassion for the person speaking to us and allow for the possibility that maybe they didn't mean what they said the way that it sounded to us. If it is someone we know, then it behooves us to go talk to them about it. If it is someone we do not know, then it is much happier to err on the side of compassion and understanding than to be angry because we chose to be offended by their words. Seriously, take control of your own feelings and don't blame how you feel on what someone else said or did. Your feelings are the result of your reactions to what you hear and see...
No one can make you feel anything you're not already feeling deep within yourself.
I want to ask everybody to please, first of all, stop giving your power* away to everybody else! Second of all, stop blaming everybody else for your reactions, because your reactions are coming from your own mental and emotional baggage! (mine is Samsonite, what's yours?)
Do you want to be happy? If your answer to that question is yes, then, for heaven's sake, let go of holding onto grudges and blaming and all of that kind of crappy thinking.
