Ouch. Hard one. I can hear some of you now: “But Ann, it IS personal.”
Is it? Really? Why? Because they said it about you? Even to your face?
Isn’t it about them? Their integrity, their values, their way of being in the world? Wouldn’t it be great if we didn’t let them rent space in our hearts and minds?
It is possible. Quite do-able even. It starts with loving yourself enough. Knowing yourself enough. Believing in yourself enough. What if you became a person that wasn’t offended anymore? How would that feel?
