Taking Offense. In English, we say that we take offense when something has occurred that causes us emotional pain. People are going to do things every day that are offensive to us – sometimes on purpose, sometimes accidentally, yet oftentimes, they have no clue that they found anything offensive. Fortunately, that offense is not ours to we take hold of it. If we take hold of it and not let it go, we are trapped. That offense will take us on a rollercoaster ride until we choose to exit the ride. The solution is simple, yet not easy to accomplish – let it go.
From where I sit, I strive to let go of the offenses that have kept me trapped.
