I love that. It reminds me of the words of James, "For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body." (James 3:2)
Shellie Huish shared that with us as one of her father's favorite sayings and how she wishes she had been better at teaching that to her children.
I have thought about it a lot and have decided it isn't necessary to tell our husbands every little thing that irks us. I have tried through the years to swallow a lot of negative thoughts. When I couldn't I may have slammed a few doors and stomped around a bit but I found it became unimportant after I had calmed down and moved on.
Building requires positive words.
