This is a proverb I think about when I am about to embark upon an argument with my wife. I think to my self, if I say something crazy it’s just going to get worse. So I pause and think on these words, ” A gentle answer turns away wrath,” She probably hates it when I do it, but in the end all things simmer down. Now if she would only do the same for me. LOL.
Let me encourage you, that when disagreements come about in any relationship, wether it be marriage, work related, etc., make sure to heed these words in order to keep your relationship from going south. We’ve all witnessed it either first hand or via CNN. Either way it’s not pretty.
Be wise.
