RULE OF LIFE

In life, were always going to have critics. We will always have difficult people who try to upset us and steal our peace and joy. But, you don't have to respond to every critic. You can decide to take the high road!
Sometimes, no matter what you say or do, there are people who are't going to accept you.
Did you know that when you allow someone else's words or actions to upset you, you're allowing them to control you? When you say, You make me so mad, you're really just admitting that their actions have power over you. As long as that person knows they can push your buttons, as long as you keep responding the same way, you are giving them exactly what they want. Sure, people have a right to say and do things that are upsetting, but we also have a right to not get offended. We have a right to overlook their actions.

In fact, we have to remove ourselves, either physically or emotionally, from strife and offense. It's not easy, but we can choose to let it roll off of us like water off a duck's back!
Remember, you don't need everyone to agree with you all the time. You don't have to have the approval of others, so overlook offenses and strife so you can live in peace and victory all the days of your life!
