"No one can make you inferior without your consent." (Eleanor Roosevelt) If you have lived long enough, you may have experienced the feeling of inferiority. Most individuals are able to shake off such a feeling. However, there are those who are incessantly bombarded with hurtful remarks that cause them to sink in the gloomy pit of "inferiority".
Inferiority will then breed an inferiority complex. The term "inferiority complex" is defined as "an unrealistic feeling of general inadequacy." The burden of inferiority will rob you of your joy and self worth. It will cause you to look in the mirror and see a negative reflection of yourself. Do not spend another vital moment believing the hurtful words or pious looks of those who want to make you feel inferior. You are a "pearl of great price." In Serita Ann Jakes book, The Princess Within, she states, "I have looked into mirrors and out through windows, and I have found that it is better to look for windows of opportunity to help others than to grasp for glimpses of my own reflection."

great blog. I think that this is one of the greatest struggles of many A/P women. The devil uses it as a powerful tool to stop them from being all they can be.
