I had a good lesson in perspective a while back. I lady was making fun of me, you know when a person tries to belittle you and make you feel insignificant or insecure. I realized at that moment I could take offense or change perspective. I thought if she wants to compare me to another to make me feel horrible, while degrading the other person as well, I am going to make the best of it. I found all the good qualities in the person I was being compared to. I found myself being thankful I was compared to her. So the moral of the story, instead of becoming offended change perspective. Look at the issue from another view. You might find yourself becoming thankful and actually flattered. Then the one trying to offend sees that you are sharing and bestowing grace not only on the offender but on all parties involved. Much love, many blessings, and remember God loves and likes you.
