When someone’s behavior hurts our feelings, we can’t know for sure if they intended to hurt us, unless they tell us so. And even if they say they didn’t, they could be spinning the truth to save face. Whether or not they intended to hurt us is far less important than our reaction. The truth is, we feel hurt over what our own interpretation means to us. Our feelings are emanating from our own lack of self-acceptance. When we truly love and accept ourselves and have healed all our wounds, we realize that the behavior of others is never…
Personal.
(We still need to own and feel our feelings, if we want to heal.)
