Pick your battles


Have you ever received a poison email? Maybe you have sent a poison email. The old adage is true. It is better to give than receive.

Oh how techonology has opened up wonderful ways for us to get back at each other. Unfortunately email lacks inflection in tone, and body language. At least with the phone you used to be able to slam the reciever back into it's cradle to make a point. But now there is a pleasant little 'click'.

My point. Think twice before you send that email. Is it really worth the battle you may start, or continue?

An offended brother is more unyeilding than a fortified city, and disputes are like the barred gates of a citadel - Proverbs 18:19
