I'm glad you said, "in their mind they are more intelligent", that's key. Whenever you are dealing with them, it's really all about what's in their mind and their limited perception, its not about actual facts!
You are correct. A number of my family members have always despised me. And yet they RELY on my skills and talents and quick thinking to get them out of binds. I love your analogy of a woman putting on makeup 😊 Also, I love squirrels - they're cute!
@@mschoy1597 Same for a master carpenter--- they envy and despise you for your skills because they have little patience. They want their words to be more powerful than your actions and deeds. Words are malleable and seldom have the long-term affect such as your patience, kindness, sincerity, authenticity, and your true faith in the Lord.
I’m the one who brought toys for the kids, rented a house with a pool, organized trips to the farm and found the funnest hotel. Yet they hate me and they ruin everything.
@@Joanthebrightone Same here. Mother never even hung out with them. She always left them with the grandmother. I never once hired a babysitter. Always spent all of my time taking them To fun restaurants, Disneyland, Dodgers games, camping, coached their baseball and soccer teams, I could go on and on.
For the first 20 years of raising two children, while my wife never worked more, or less than 40-hr weeks--- I got them up, fed, and to school every single day. Then I went to work--- I often had a job and customer projects. Bosses and customers never knew my real schedule. Some wanted me to work overtime, so my work weeks were sometimes 100 hours long. No vacations or 4-day holidays for 14 years. Then we took 4 days camping. Our daughter was 7, our son was 12. It made a huge impression on them and their lives. Later in life my son and my wife have forgotten my worth; forgotten my love. I will never forget those great years of our lives.❤

Narcissists envy and desire to be envied. AND they hate being wrong. A sincerely curious person--- a lover of truth--- will be grateful in the long run, if you show patience.
@@SheldonBrown567 "small fish swim in schools; the Great White Shark swims alone." cc. 2003. 👀 🐠 🌊 The best response to this aphorism has been the mention that a group(gang) of orcas will attack the Great White and eat it's liver.. 😊 Reminds me of what happens to the scapegoat in a family, ot church even. Groups(collective)will eventually show their true colors in regard to independent-thinking. Christianity has a dark past as well as socialists systems. Conformity is the evil behind the veil.
@@SheldonBrown567 Revelations 22:16 reveals this truth. Man is both human and divine. The Jehova Witnesses attempted to trick me into agreeing that some see the Bible as "conflictive". I corrected them by repeating what I said: "The Bible is paradoxical." God is paradoxical. Synchronistic Mathematics is a Truth System. Ignored by sinners. Paradox and divinity is revealed in Revelation.
Hey Sheldon, this was an awesome message. It so helped me. I can see how when I made a life for myself over in Israel as a media person, just by going on social media, the heads of the narcs in the fam exploded and that is when their abuse got way worse. It did come from envy because I made a life out of nothing. I had almost died from sepsis in 2010. Right after that my life became super exciting with the things I was doing. Anyway, I wanted to mention that if you would use your skills as a counselor along with your education and become a life coach for the sg community, I would hire you for your support and insights. I hope I haven't over stepped your boundaries by saying this. Thank you for all you do, Leslie
You said that we know who we are.😁. I would say it us more that we know WHOSE we are! 🙌🙌😐. We belong to The Most High. We are HIS, and THAT is where our comfort and strength of integrity comes from. 💪🏼. We are just mirrors for Jesus.😁❤️. Those narcissists are mirrors for their master. That is why they can look so evil, they are reflecting the demonic forces. We are all mirrors to either good or evil. 😐.
So true. One big truth is that we really do like ourselves for who we are and if theirs something we don’t like we’re willing to change. We’re still growing but liking ourselves even in our mistakes learning and moving past it. Shame doesn’t seem to have a grip on our souls It’s a supernatural gift to us chosen one. Who can explain it. It’s just our fabric our essence our makeup. Our gift ❤️🙏👍
