“Our society has made becoming offended a national pastime.” J.M. Farrow

"A man's wisdom gives him patience; it is to his glory to overlook an offense." Proverbs 19:11 NIV

I wonder how easy it is for me to be offended? I believe it is wise to develop tough skin where personal injury is concerned. Having said that I think it is equally wise to keep a tender heart. Let me exercise compassion toward those who rant against my opinions and beliefs. Let me also learn to hold my tongue when they express they express theirs, unless what I say can bridge the gap not deepen the divide.  Conversations Within” ts 12/26/2013 (On the road, GA-AL)
