When a person's mind is set, they usually will not change for anyone that is a true saying..Some wise people do change their beliefs, and ideas..Wise counsel is the only one that we should seek, peacemakers we should be, and forgiveness should be a regular occurance in our lives..Great topic and presentation..Mom

We may try, but there's really no way for us to change another person. Understanding and forgiveness are all we can offer. Very beautifully written, Doris, and congratulations on your win in John's contest! Love, Carolyn
