If The Shoe Fits, Wear It

If the shoe fits, wear it

Have you ever gone to church and felt someone must have told the pastor/ priest all your secrets? It seems he is looking straight at you and the entire sermon was directed to you without a doubt. Or maybe you walked into a room and there were some people talking quietly and they abruptly stopped talking the very moment you entered the room. Surely, they must have been talking about you. What is that lady pointing at? I don’t know her, why is she pointing at me? I cannot believe her audacity to post something like that about me on social media. I have not said or done anything to her. Just look at all her posts, they are all about me, and my family.
Well, I hate to be the one to burst up your poor pitiful me party, but none of it in fact was about you, to you, or for you. The sermon was planned weeks ago, and the preacher has no clue what you have done. It’s your guilty conscience telling you that he knows. The people in the room were talking about something personal and private about themselves and didn’t want you or anyone else to hear. That’s why they stopped talking when you came in. That lady pointing was pointing at an unusual sign behind you. It had absolutely nothing to do with you. All the posts you read on her social media page were nothing more than shared posts she saw on someone else’s page and thought they were funny, so she shared them for a laugh. But it seems you feel it is all about you! Why? You must be guilty or the thought that any of it applied to you would never have crossed your mind. Your name was not mentioned, not even once. So, I guess as the old saying goes, If the shoe fits, wear it.
What that means is, if it applies to you then own it. If it doesn’t, then shut your poor pitiful me pie hole and move on.
