A proverb a day: Proverbs 12:16

“A fool is quick tempered, but a wise person stays calm when insulted.”  Proverbs 12:16 NLT

Too many times we blow up after someone offends us.  If we could just take a moment when these times arise, breathe deep, and pray, we are sure to have a better outcome than if we behaive foolishly and making bad our reputation.

Rudyard Kipling said in a poem , “If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blamming it on you…Yours is the earth and everything that’s in it…”

Keep a cool head and keep your life.
