It doesn’t matter what I was complaining about – although some of you are nodding your heads and thinking, “I’ve been listening to your grousing. Enough, already!” It’s so easy to get upset about things, especially when we feel so right, …
There will be times when we are wrong. There will be times when we are right. It comes down to this: What will we do during the wrong times and the right times? Who will we be? When we’re wrong, we can pretend our wrong is right. Or we can close our eyes and ignore our wrong. Or point at …
