Forgiveness is divine.

People act in ways which are not the same thing as who a person is. That is why it's called acting.

Also, we often interpret actions to carry significance defined by the individual perceiving said actions.

--In social psychology, the fundamental attribution error (FAE), also known as the correspondence bias or attribution effect, is the claim that in contrast to interpretations of their own behavior, people place undue emphasis on internal characteristics of the agent (character or intention), rather than external factors, in explaining other people's behavior. The effect has been described as "the tendency to believe that what people do reflects who they are". --(from wikipedia)

When faced with rejection, after the sting of my ego wears off and I can develop the capacity to bring awareness to my priority which is to be an emotionally developed person, I try to take it in as an opportunity to learn to be a better person which often comes with getting over myself.

A little bit of ego death is good for the soul.

It's an opportunity to learn to be a better human being and practice some humility. If you have the strength. Liberation is a hairy pill to swallow.
