My entire life I've been a push over, because that's what I thought god wanted from me. Turn the other cheek, never standing up for myself. I was bullied, but always thought reacting in love would be the best punishment for them. Turns out, not so. Now that I've come into my own and learned to stand up for myself and be assertive (within reason of course), I have a better self esteem and lots of truly great close friends. So that "turn the other cheek" isn't always for the best. Yes, there are moments when it's the best course of action, but I like being free to decide when that is.
