Offences are usually triggered by a response of our emotions to two principal external stimuli; people and circumstances. Government policies can catch us off-guard and set our enterprise or organization on what appears to be a downward spiral. When we are offended, a chain of events like discouragement and frustration which can sometimes be overwhelming and lead to depression, is triggered. When you are offended, the spotlight is really on you, not on the offender. Whatever happens, always remember that retaining offence is like shutting people up in a prison you created in your heart.
