Ok This is the last thing I do on mylot tonight I really must go to bed I haven't slept in two nights! Just thought I would leave my friends with this thought! RESPOND CALMLY Quarrelling can be a major souece of stress. Follow the advice of Solomon, " A harsh word stirs up anger, but a soft answer turns away wrath." This is one I really need to work on!

That is one I need to workon also. I usually revert back to the saying "If you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all" Up for 2 days that would explain why it seems you were always here when I was the last day or so. Good night and sweet dreams

It doesn't apply in my case pal , It takes an awful lot to make me angry , My DIL has only seen me angry once and she has known Jim for about 20 yrs , sleep well pal xx

And this is so true as I used to use this all the time on my Daughter who can be very High Strung. Also I used to use it on some of my Staff who could be very Irate so it is very true and it works most of the time.

Please correct me if I am wrong is the same Solomon who resided over the two women quarrelling over who's baby it was? So he came up with the idea of cutting the baby in half to give to each to decide! The woman who wasn't the real mother said NO! Very wise man indeed. Respond calmly indeed, or to some responses don't respond at all! Thanks for sharing and sweet dreams my friend x

Hi, yes you must go to bed it must be very late there for you, oh that is not good that you have not had any sleep for 2 nights. Yes you are right be careful what you say and why should we be angry it is best to be happy and try to make other feel good about themselves.

that is so true it is much better to avoid an argument where it is at all possible.
