This weekend I was in the food court in the mall near the hotel and listening to a woman go on and on about a person that she and her friend thought were so self-centered. And by listening to what they were complaining about, I realized the woman most vocal on this person's selfishness was the one who was really self-centered. She was upset that the unknown woman wasn't focusing on her.

Made me start to think....

About all the people I've known that would rant about other people's self centered behavior.

And for the most part, they were upset that the people in question wanted to take a break from the other person's problems to take care of their own things for a while.


So, who is really the selfish one?

Those are the kind of friends that just suck the life right out of you. I have rid myself of so called friends like this in the past.

It is true. People who accuse you of being selfish are usually selfish themselves and feeling put out over not being the center of attention or whatever.
