People are victimized when someone talks down to them, showing disrespect and ultimately devaluing him or her.

If you feel victimized, not everyone feels that way about you. You have much good in you. The person verbally attacking you is in a bad place, often to hide his or her own faults or misgivings.

Keep your spirit on a higher plane by speaking well of others. If you just can’t do that for a particular person, keep your soul healthy by maintaining silence.
