I took offense to something said to me today. Basically I felt like it was demeaning.

Someone was basically giving me an order and ended the phrase with "shouldn't be too hard." So I answered a question and said (verbatim) "And don't talk to me like that, please."

So I got loads back about how I "attacked" them by defending myself.

My view is why don't you just sit right down and listen to me. I get to set that bar for how I'm treated, so pfffft on that. Why do I have to sit there and be told for 40 minutes worth of texts that I'm attacking someone instead of getting an "I'm sorry."

It's draining.

Why should anyone else set my standard bar?

It's my standard bar isn't it!

Do a little limbo dance under it
if you want it lower

OK /rantend

Just needed someone to talk to and just Bleh at

LoL!

I hereby consider myself "Blehed at" then :) (even though I don't know what in the world this is even about, LoL).

Sorry you had a rough day.

P.S. There's always hot cocoa and Calvin and Hobbes!

I think I would be offended too. I understand the rant. I hope you don't mind if I let off some steam too... I get treatment like that all the time and I don't like it but I deal with it and don't say anything. But what I want to say would get me in trouble :(

Rant Start: Yeah I haven't had real good success lately on Social media. I keep getting attacked myself. It's like trying to pet a porcupine or something for me lately. What is really going on? I think Satan is using people to attack me. I even had one person assume and judge me and say I was using someone who was another friend of mine: Rant End

PS Hopefully this was a rant thread, or boy am I embarrassed :) LOL!

Yeah that sounds like an excellent idea, but I wonder if the mods would allow that? Well I hope your not ordered around, how rude! And it sounds like you work really hard. At least that's what I understand from some of your other posts. Well I hope God blesses us with peace!

I think they would be fine with it as long as it is clean, follows the rules, and it is not personally attacking people. Let it out!!

I would have said "if it isn't too hard then do it yourself you donkey" so you were much kinder than me. (Except I wouldn't have said donkey it's just that I can't say the real world on here. XD)

Artistic people tend to be sensitive. Sensitive is good when it comes to relating to God.
God makes various types of people and all are required.
I once told my worship pastor that I thought I was sensitive.
Laughing, she said, "Of course you are, you're a worship leader." :)

Hello @FluffyYellowDuck,

You know that when you let off dry steam that it is invisible to the human eye until the steam begins to condense out and then it disappears again as it is absorbed into the air.

You know that when you let off wet steam that it already has water droplets suspended in it so that the wet steam appears to be visible to the human eye. To use steam, condensation traps are put into the pipework to capture the water condensates so that the water condensate can be safely removed from the steam so as it cannot damaging the plant when in use.

From your seamstress experience you may appreciate the following: -

Many people try and tear the fork out of a person's nightie, not realising that a nightie cannot be made with a fork in it to tear out.

So stop letting people put a fork in your nightie that they can then tear out thereby causing you pain and sorry.

So understand the processes at work when people attempt to tear the fork out of your nightie that they have tried to put there and pity them for their ignorance's.

In Ephesians 4: 23-24 Paul extolls us to: -

Ephesians 4:20-24: - 20 But you have not so learned Christ, 21 if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus: 22 that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, 23 and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, 24 and that you put on the new/refurbished man/personhood which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.

What many "Christians" forget to do once they have "renewed the spirit of their mind," is to put it on and apply what it is the they have learned in the renewing process of the spirit of their minds which reflects their essences in the God that they have come into relationship with through their worship.

Yes these people may cause us to become angry, but if we have renewed our mind, we turn that anger to forgiveness and bless them instead. Sometimes they will get it, other times they will miss it altogether.

Shalom

I am so tired of the masks left all over the street. They are covering up the wildflowers.


Yall ever hear of... pockets! Put them in your pocket!!!!


Oh, but that would make sense.
The new environmental threat, discarded paper masks.

I have yet to travel the road or through a parking lot without seeing them discarded.
The thing is, while seeing those all about, what is now missing and for at least a year?
Discarded folded up filthy disposable diapers in parking lots.

:mad: Really?


Re, the OP, keep in mind when you encouter someone that that treats you that way that they could be saying stuff like, shouldn't be too hard, that they intend to upset you with cracks like that.

They gain satisfaction hurting your feelings. It's called, sadistic personality disorder.


They gain pleasure demeaning someone.
I knew a self professed satanist with that disorder. One among many mental disconnects.
Malignant Narcissist, pathological liar, Contrarian.

How hard is it to throw away a diaper! Eww walk to the trash can

Yes that is what it is... I have known that for a long time. And I have always wondered if it was demonic oppression because it starts up most when I am working on myself. Those little jabs start coming out. Or I'm told I have too much pride for not accepting them or I'm "selfish" for wanting to be happy because they say God doesn't actually want me to be. (apparently they didn't read about joy in the Bible)

If I'm working out, studying, eating healthy, doing what I need to get done, then it starts up again to knock me down. Sometimes sticking up for myself, like today, makes it worse. It just keeps going.

I've started not listen to it and go into praise and worship because I can't handle it tearing down my mind anymore! And it helps!
