Strength

" How strong are you? The definition of strength varies among people. Some people believe that strength comes from being superior: winning all the time, making others lose, pointing out their weaknesses, and condescending them. They believe that strength comes from how much they don't fall. But true strength is not determined by how much weakness they don't have; it's determined by their strength to
embrace and accept their weaknesses. There is nothing wrong with being weak or wrong, or not knowing something. Because what really matters is how they acknowledge and accept these weaknesses and strive for improvement. A show of ignorance or an offensive response is merely to cover over their desperate need to hide and deny their weaknesses. It's easy to deny and to be seen as 'strong'. But they can't fight their inner desperation of such greed. It takes a ton of courage to accept. It takes true strength to admit mistakes, admit defeat, to overcome their inner desire to be superior.

It's okay to have weaknesses - because how we deal with them is what really determines our own genuine strength.

People portray their own reality. Sometimes these insecurities are projected onto you like described above, don't take it to heart...You don't have to accept it, But you can understand it.  Understanding other people's pain & reality, helps you change your own actions/reactions into positive ones. Don't take their monkey on your back...keep positive and you might help someone make their own reality positive as well. The saying is true, " Be the change you wish to see in the world " ...... So yeah!! Start with yourselves & watch your relationships improve. God willing.InshAllah
