Mean People
So stop and think about someone that has been mean to you; it can be anyone. Lets even take this to a deeper level if you are willing.
Ok, think about a time that your mother or father did something that really took you for a loop, something that hurt you in a profound way.
Now stop and look at this as a third person, when you can see the event that happened, whether it was your parents or anyone else.
Now rewind the clock and look at what that person may have been dealing with before this event.
Lets go even deeper; imagine what it was like for them in the primary years of their life.
Did they have a good solid foundation to build on?
Did they have the support, nurturing and caring in their foundational years of their life?
If you really want to know why mean people do mean things, or it would be more accurate to say broken people act out in broken ways.
Yes, the truth is when broken people react and touch a unhealed spots in our emotions, we respond to the pain that we never dealt with in our lives, most likely the primary years of our life.
Do you see what may have been happening when your parents, spouse, or anyone did the unthinkable and said those hurtful words?
Did it come from a place of wholeness or a place of brokenness that has been there long before this event?
The truth is, people that are walking in wholeness would never do or say mean or hurtful things.
One more thing to think about, if you did not have a sore spot that is not healed, could they hurt you by pushing on it?
