Some people say offensive things on a daily basis. They want you to be offended. If you become upset and have a negative response, they win. Their day is now complete while your day is ruined because you chose to be offended. The more this happens the more sensitive you become towards offensive words.
Then there are others that unintentionally say something that you take as an offensive comment. The words they used were not said to offend anyone. It was just an opinion or comment, but your hyped up sensitivity has made you react negatively.
Don’t fall into this trap. You have a choice. Walk away, ignore what you might believe as offensive words. Choose not to be offended. Yes, you can do that. If the words used were intended to offend you, but chose to ignore them, you win.. Arguing with a person who is trying to offend you is a no win situation. They won’t listen to you. Their mind won’t be changed. Life is challenging as it is, so why not eliminate problems by choosing not to be offended.
Be a winner, smile and walk away. “Just Saying . . .”
