” Don’t take it personally when someone who verbally abuses others insult you,” says Rabbi Zelig Pliskin.
We are taught by our sages that when someone insults or offends us and we don’t respond we are considered in a very high level and at that moment you can ask for anything you want and H”S will give it to you. I have heard of numerous stories of people who have been humiliated in public and they restrain from answering and then they give a blessing to someone who hasn’t been able to have children and B”H they conceive. Or people who have been sick and they get cured.
When we come in contact with a harsh and critical person, we must remember that the problem is his. In this way we will be able to manage not getting angry or offended and we will be free of any bad feelings.
