So I've had some thoughts on my heart lately. I was out doing some shopping getting some homey things for my new home. When a woman the next car over yelled out you could say excuse me apparently my door was to close for her. I have a 2 door car which swings wide so help me God my next car will have 4 doors. So I said well excuse me to which she answered shut up tramp! I had on my leopard print pug pencil skirt and cowgirl boots from Topeka Kansas on. Her response really rattled me and put a damper on my shopping. Why the ugly I wondered. It really bothers me when women say ugly words to each other. I really wanted to curse this woman out truth be told. I firmly believe that we should build each other up with our words and not tear down. So I didn't shout out all the mean words that were on the tip of my tongue. Instead I said I hope that you are very mightily blessed. I said it with lots of force because the mean words really wanted to come out instead lol, and I went into the store really rattled and not feeling very good. I'm pouting and making my way through the store when this lovely teenage young woman comes up to me and says I really love your style and outfit. I said thank you and realized that its important to choose to see and reflect the beauty. Don't take in the poison other women need to see and receive what you have to give. Just my thought tonight. Xoxo

Thanks for the comments ladies. Jessica I suspect you are right her words were an indication of the state of her soul and it wasn't in good condition. My choice was to not reflect the ugly back it was hard! I hate when women war on each other with their words or actions. It seems we are assaulted on so many fronts that we shouldn't turn our swords on each other. We myself included for sure need to learn how to wield our strength not on tearing each other down but in reflecting the best of each other. Women are magnificent creatures. I'm sorry that you have issues with your sister on this. I hope she finds peace. I've come to a better place with my sister recently. For me I had to let go of negative labels others had imposed on me and us as sisters. I was always coming up short according to other people's measurements. They would say why can't you be like her outgoing fun etc they let me know i was lacking and she was not with comments about my size everything. My sister and I actually had a talk about it when she heard how I was treated she was angry in my behalf. I was no longer letting others comments have the power over my views or my relationship with her. We re different and that's ok. We're not meant to be the same. The conversation ended with her saying your my sister and I love you and I feel the same way about her.

I'm sorry you had to deal with that negativity, but I'm also really happy you received such a lovely compliment out of it! 
A lot of women react with negativity towards things that make them jealous, so maybe she could have been upset that you have the confidence to wear what makes you look even more beautiful. (Either way, she should not have reacted in such a horrid manner.) 

You handled that situation like a true PUG. Props to you and don't take her words to heart.

Thanks for your comment Ellie Mae Berry. Adore your name by the way. :)The lovely young lady who complimented me had no clue what had just went down but her words helped me put things in perspective. So I was thankful for that.
