"Certainly clumsy, embarrassing, unprincipled, and mean spirited things
do occur
in our interactions with other people
that would allow us to take offense.
However, it ultimately is impossible
for another person to offend you or to offend me.
Indeed, believing that another person offended us
is fundamentally false.
To be offended is a choice we make;
it is not a condition inflicted or imposed upon us
by someone or something else."
