Understanding Rude People

Lastly, since we know insubordination and financial difficulties can cause rudeness.  Now, I want speak on the issue of broken relationships.  Just recently, in the Chicago Sun Times or the Tribune; a certain man was in a relationship with his girlfriend.  However, during the relationship a wedge was drawn between the two which caused them to separate.  Maybe the man was rude.  Whether or not I do not know; but only God knows.  Soon enough, the man became enraged, got in a car with a concealed weapon, and took two innocent lives.  How sad is that!  For I wondered if somebody told this man there are other fish in the sea.  To tell the truth, I think a combination of mixed feelings (which includes rudeness) caused this man to kill two innocent people.  In fact, people are often rude when it comes to dealing with severed relationships.  In my case, I used to be rude because of a horrible violation that occurred in my childhood. 

However, there is another thing I want to mention concerning rude people.  I have made an observation through out the years as a Christian.  Furthermore, in that observation I found bitterness to be a major source of rudeness.  Consequently, when people harbor bitterness in their hearts; it causes them to become rude and unforgiving.  Now, bitterness is inner hatred and strife without expressing it with words.  For instance, let’s say someone offended you in a humiliating way.  That is, in such a way (like your girlfriend or boyfriend committed a horrible violation concerning your private matters in life) it causes you to become embarrassed and even bitter.  Moreover, you conjure up hatred and strife which leads to bitterness; and therefore, it causes you to be rude and strive against that person you thought who was your best-friend.  Sad to say, however; I had this happened to me more than a decade ago.  But now as a Christian I learned that forgiveness is the only way to conquer rudeness and also rude people in general.
