When you are tempted to react hastily out of hurt or anger, do your best to pause before you speak or act. Do you want to be 'that' person? Do you want to BE the source of someone else's pain or resentments? You can't control other's poor judgment, you can only control how you respond. You don't want to be covered with a blanket of regret on your death bed. Instead, lie in a bed wrapped in linens of comfort and warmth created by your pure heart. Live and die in peace by showing the same love, kindness,and understanding you wish to receive. THAT will be your legacy. Be the ancestor your family is proud to speak of generations from now.
