Compromise

It's no surprise that compromise Can solve so many woes, From visions 'bout decisions To uniting former foes. Don't merely stay with Column A, But choose a bit from B; The middle ground might bring you 'round To true serenity. A little give can help you live At peace within your soul And what you'll find inside your mind Will help to make you whole. So take a breath, for life or death Won't hinge on your conclusion, But if your bent is to relent, There's promise in profusion.

Very well done! It offers good advice to people as well in laymans terms.

Compromise, surrender, where do you draw the line. We kick and scratch and argue over what is yours and mine. No matter what the day will bring, there's one thing that I've learned. That if we cannot get along we're both bound to get burned. Thanks for the reminder to let go and let God.
