I was given hurtful words from someone close to me who was hurting and felt the need to hurt someone- anyone. It can be hard not to take them personally. But I have to remember what I always asked the kids when they would come to me, hurt from words someone said to them, I'd ask, "do you believe that is true?", and they would say no - then let it go and know it is about them not you. So this is what I will do today. Wish that person "peace" and KNOW it is about them not me.
