People spend too much time getting even with each other for slights and wrongs they've suffered ; whether real or imagined, --- SOMEONE MUST PAY!

We should be so busy getting on with our lives and making a success of our own personal TODAY that we don't have time to worry about "that rude person". Besides, maybe, just maybe you got the wrong impression from something someone did or said. Either way don't let it spoil an otherwise pretty decent day, week, month, year, Just Don't Sweat The Small Stuff.

"GRUDGE NOT ONE AGAINST ANOTHER BRETHREN, LEST YE BE CONDEMNED."                                                                                                                             James 5:9

Don't make mountains out of mole hills, And strife and trouble seek. Don't look for hidden meanings, In the words that people speak. Don't sit among the ashes, Of bygone scenes of strife, Stirring coals of anger, To bring them back to life. You don't have to look for trouble. It finds you in time. Seek instead to be content, Your character refine. Let the past stay buried, Unless there be some boon. T'will make your burden lighter, And heal an open wound.
