Do we look to get offended? Sound strange?

Have you ever told someone off and then told other people about it as if you were bragging. When we do this, we are saying that if feels good to hurt someone else with the words that we use.

This isn't justice. This is called REVENGE. Watch out for those "Revenge People," because if you accidentally hurt them, they may purposely hurt you.

How can you avoid being offended? Answer: remember that people are not out to hurt you. Sometimes you just might be in the way of their actions. Our own actions have accidentally hurt someone and sometimes others are in the way of it.

How to be Dissapointed?

Don't allow others to make mistakes. When people don't fit in with who WE want them to be, we believe that gives us the right to complain and be dissapointed. Our dissapointments stem from putting others actions under a microscope.

"We judge others by what they do and then judge ourselves by what we can become."

Today you will have an opportunity get offended

What are you going to do about it?

Today you will have thousands of opportunities to be offended. You see, when someone is trying to offend you, sometimes that is the bait. Once you get offended, that means you have taken the bait and they have now pulled you into their world. Those who get offended by another person have been taken captive by this person. You've allowed this person to take control over your emotions.

You have 2 choices
Are you going to get Bitter or Better?

If you get Bitter- you allow others to control how whether or not you will enjoy today. Bitterness means you have let others distract you from the life that you should be excited to live.

If you get Better- When someone tries to be a negative influence in your life, you will take this opportunity to be a positive influence in their life.

Manage your emotions before they manage you

What does this mean? There are positive emotions and negative emotions. Which type of emotions do you allow to control your life?

Have you ever looked for someone to offend you. You're saying, "Now why would you look for that?" Answer: So you can show them that their opinions are none of your business.
