If you’ve ever been a target of bullying, have you noticed how bullies, their followers, and cohorts consistently brag and boast to others and among themselves about how they abuse you. They gloat to anyone who will listen to them, and people seem to get personal entertainment from it. And they’re not afraid to do it right in front of you.
You’ll hear statements such as:
“I beat the breaks off that *****!”
“That little punk got owned!”
“We sure put that wimp in her place!”
“When we see him, we’re going to cut him down to size!”
“We sure shut her down when she tried to open her mouth, didn’t we?”
And they do it while laughing and high fiving one another. In doing this, they openly admit that you’re their target and that they abuse you.
Yet, if anyone outside their group brings it up and, especially if you do, they will sneer, ridicule, and do their due diligence to silence you? They even deny that it’s happening, or they try and justify themselves.
Have you even wondered why these people do this- openly brag about the abuse they inflict on you, then turn around and, depending on the person bringing it up or the overall circumstances and environment, try to cover up the abuse?
It’s because this is the best way for the bullies to hide the abuse in plain sight and sadly, it works like a charm.
With knowledge comes empowerment!
Looking at the image presented, I was reminded of the teachings of the Word of God that enlighten our minds, offering us solutions in any context and circumstances we may find ourselves at some point in our lives:
“Be wise as serpents and meek as doves.”
A blessed weekend, with all your loved ones!
Thank you so much, Losif! 💖 What a beautiful scripture! 😍
They do and bragging about the abuse bullies inflict makes them look like a big person.
To some people yes! To people who are smart, they look ridiculous!
They do!
This is truly sad Cherie and you’re right, they blend into the scenery when they want to…hiding in plain sight! UGH!!! 😖😠😵 Yet somehow, sooner or later, they are in plain sight of being targeted by a bully bigger and badder than them! 😲😜😱 Enjoy your weekend sweetie pie! 🤗🥰😘
You’re so right, sweetie! About everything you point out here! Wishing you a wonderful weekend too, dahhh-ling! 🌞🦋💐💖🎶🌹🤗😘🤗😘💋
The human spirit should be like a humble soft bird.
You’re absolutely right! 💯 It should. But, sadly, that’s rare in this self-absorbed world.
