A friend and I had a dispute last winter. It was such sage advice I kept it for a reminder for myself. We talked through it and remained friends. I want to share his quote. Patience....something I have been working on all my life. :( I am still working on it.

"Patience" ~by Yudansha

"I think that's all it comes down to. One of the virtues. Patience. I think that when people realize that, then all of the pieces will fit together. Patience. Taking the time to read. Taking time to understand. Patience. Holding back the spontaneous outlashes. Taking the time to see other side of the coin. Patience. Like I said, that's all it takes. Realizing that is half the journey. No excuses, just patience. Realizing that there are no sides to the coin will lead you to your conclusions. Life ain't easy, but with patience, it's doable.
You see, respect is hard to gain, but oh it's such a slippery object that it's easy to take for granted and lose....Friendship is something that simply cannot be taken for granted...."~ Yudansha (I hope he doesn't mind me quoting him)
