There’s nothing bullies like more than to get under your skin. Whether it’s the superfluously critical in-law or the troll on your social media account, getting a rise out of you seems to give them pleasure and satisfaction. So why fuel their fire?

It can be challenging to deal honorably with others when they come off as judgmental, offensive, or belligerent. So when you find those pesky defenses and negatively charged emotions rising up within you, I want you to remember one simple maneuver that may just keep you sane—reframe it.

When a photographer takes a picture, what he or she includes in the frame makes a big difference. A portrait focuses solely on the face of a particular individual. Similarly, when we find ourselves focused on the actions of one person, that’s all we see. So if they treat us poorly, it fills our view and consumes our attention.

However, if the photographer were to pull back and frame a bigger picture, the person originally photographed would not seem as important in light of the overall scene. When you learn to pull back and reframe a negative interaction, it can make all the difference. You may have a judgy in-law, but your spouse loves you. Your marriage is good. Your kids are happy. There’s a bigger picture, and you are not enslaved to seeing only one person’s opinion on your life. Same goes for a critical supervisor, a complaining coworker, or a negative naysayer on social media.

Reframing your perspective in the midst of conflict could very well help you stay cool, calm, and collected. Remember, keep the negativity of others in its proper place. If there’s truth in it, acknowledge and learn from it—but don’t react to it. The quickest way to do this is to simply reframe it in light of the bigger picture and know their opinion is not the only one that matters.

Cute relationship is …
when someone is angry and says I will never talk to you . And later comes back to you to just inform you I am still angry.

Celebrate the dads in your life.
The Bible is full of stories about fathers and father figures who God used in different ways.

Dads like Jesus’ earthly father, Joseph, who faithfully led and protected his family.

Or Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, who gave wisdom and leadership advice to Moses.

And Paul, who was a spiritual mentor to Timothy.

Just like the men in the Bible, the dads in our lives inspire us in different ways.

Maybe they’ve protected you like Joseph, shared timely guidance like Jethro, or encouraged you like Paul.

Whether he’s your own dad or a father figure, tell a dad how thankful you are for who he is and what he means to you.

Have you ever felt that a gift wasn't a gift? You are not alone.

Gifts, at their core, are visual symbols of love. They are representative of the genuine affections and positive emotions felt toward an individual. Yet, if we are not careful, how we give gifts (not the value) can speak volumes to the contrary.

So, when does a gift NOT feel like a gift? Here are a few things to watch out for:

• A gift is a gift only when it is an expression of genuine love, not as an effort to cover up past mistakes or hurts. This is not to say flowers, a gift card, or a watch after an argument won't be received, it just won't feel quite as meaningful as a gift that isn't trying to "make up" for something hurtful.
• Gifts are given with an expectation of a return or favours. Examples of this might be: “I bought you a watch, you can at least do this one thing for me”, “I expect you to use this bread maker at least twice a week”, or “I didn't buy that lingerie to sit in the drawer.” Gifts with strings attached do not feel like gifts.
• A gift that takes the place of true expressions of love doesn't feel like a gift. For example, parents who may be busy might buy lots of gifts for their children while neglecting their primary Love Languages of Words of Affirmation, Acts of Service, Physical Touch, and Quality Time. In essence, they are trying to make up for their deficit through gifts.
• When you complain about having to get a gift, say how expensive it was, or how "stupid" gift-giving is on certain special occasions, the joy from receiving the gift will quickly deplete. The person receiving the gift only wants to hear that you were thinking positive and affectionate thoughts toward them when you bought it. The reason you got it is not because they expect it on a holiday, rather, it's solely because you love them and the holiday just gives you one more chance to express that love. Keep the right perspective.
• An "unthoughtful" gift will not feel like a gift——a Fogo de Chão gift card for a vegetarian, a book for a non-reader, or when they have told you in the past they don't like a certain style of clothes, yet there it is. Unthoughtful gifts show you weren't listening or don't know them well. An unthoughtful gift could be based on your taste, rather than something another person would enjoy.
Gifts need not be expensive; after all, “it's the thought that counts.” But I remind you, it is not the thought left in your head that counts; it is the gift that came out of the thought that communicates emotional love.

If you want to be the best kind of gift-giver, you only need to affectionately place the receiver at the centre of it all. If you do, you really can't go wrong.

To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed
social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived…
This is to have succeeded.
