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.

"Your reactions to their actions reveals your character in action."

"This is my last day of being offended by somebody who probably doesn't even know what they are doing." ~ Joyce Meyer

Quote of the month: "A true friend is someone who thinks you are a good egg even though they know that you are slightly cracked." ~Bernard Meltzer

Hi,

Just found your blog by way of Technorati.

Great writing about "how one reacts when being offended".
