I am not sure if it's an asset or detriment, but I have a hard time staying angry. Raised to turn the other cheek, I may seethe silently at injustices, but I don't stay mad, and I find myself forgiving where others might not. In my lower-esteem moments, I call it "kicked puppy syndrome"....smack me into a corner, where I'll cower and lick my wounds until you call me back....because come I will, tail wagging, eager to be petted and loved again.
these six words leapt out from the sermon I heard in church this morning. Thanks Pastor Jodi. (I attend a Baptist church which has two lady ministers on the pastoral team.)We can live with peace and joy no matter...

That is the nature of us ... many have that proclivity, me included.
