Hello Barb,
They stopped adding chapters to the Bible quite a few years ago, so no chance
of me getting included. Therefore I will not be shooting for sainthood....
realized a long time ago that anger is an emotion that uses far too much energy.
Simple matter of what is expedient... what works best.
I will get around eventually to placing a small sign on the entrance to the
garden. After that a gentle hand on the elbow and begin a new conversation, moving
them along and back on to the path.
