Hey Fabulous!
Every one of us is unique and special in our own way! What I love about that is if we engage people with the curiosity of finding out what’s so special about them, our encounters will be entirely different.
I can remember walking into a room of women at a women’s fellowship and being sized up and glared at by a few of the ladies in the room. I made those women my targets. I made sure they were the ones I talked to before leaving the fellowship. Why? Because there’s a woman who doesn’t know their own self-worth, uniqueness, or what makes her special.
Now, there have been some settings where I’ve walked in and experienced the same things, but with the “snub-nose” additive. In this situation, the individuals have a low opinion of themselves, covers it up with an air of being confident, and also want to make it their mission to see that anyone they’re threatened by feels their superiority. These type of women need something different, and those are so bruised that if I even attempted to uplift, or point out how special they are, they would end up telling, “I know, Darling!” 😂
So, you pick and choose according to the climate of the room so you don’t come out licking your wounds because they attack.
Moral of this: find someone who is trying to be oddly difficult or distant and make it your business to compliment, encourage, and uplift just for the heck of it. It’ll make you feel good and it’ll soften them up and make them rethink their approach.
