That means sit down and repeatedly apologize while she talks it out...there is an old saying....if a tree falls in a forest, and there is no woman there, am I still wrong?

Pride is the key word here.If a couple are working together well it is a matter of respect for each other.One person should not sit there and rake someone over the coals.But listen to each others side respectfully.If you really love that person you will want to resolve a conflict with love and respect.If not then their are alot of counselors out there.

The nurse had brought his file and the name read "Yamraj", which means "God of Death" in Hinduism. As I waited for him to come in, I wondered why his parents must have named him so. Surely he wouldn't have looked like one when he was born. Perhaps they were worshippers of Yamraj. Or perhaps it was just a mistake on their part; they didn't realize the meaning of the name. As he entered my room, I saw that he was thin and pale, tense and nervous, as if he himself had just seen "Yamraj" on the way to the clinic. I asked him whether he knew the meaning of his name. He smiled but didn't reply. Well, there you are; the peculiarities of human life. One of the things that most people have no control over is their own names. They are stuck with whatever their parents or guardians thought was good for them and by the time they realize that something else would have been better, their names are already in their school certificates and passports and changing to some other preferred name would mean "an uphill task", which most avoid.But there's another side to this matter. We read in the book of Proverbs,Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favour and a good name in the sight of God and man. (Proverbs 3:3, 4)Inference: We can win a good name in the sight of God and man, no matter what name we have. I have a friend from India at work that is all the way into Hinduism.Are you of Hindu religion or are you a Christian? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few years ago a candidate stood for Mayor dressed as Angus the Monkey & was elected - His alter-ego has done a great job in the seat! C+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
