Keep Sweet-Tempered

KEEP sweet-tempered. Hold yourself in check. If you allow yourself to get nervously wrought up over little annoyances, or irritated at the actions or remarks of others, you will be sure to do and say that which will be out of place, and cause you many regrets. Words shot from the bowstring of a tense spirit fly swiftly and may pierce deeply. When you are talking with an angry person, use self-control and remember that “a soft answer turneth away wrath.”—Selected.
