never proclaim that you will not put up with something
... chances are, you have, you will and you would.
friends, spouse, significant other, boss, coworker, parents, children ~
at some point in your life, you have looked at someone else's and said "no mam, i would not put up with that!" secretly (or openly) we judge people that are slow to offend and quick to forgive. always understand that you do not have all the facts. these people we judge are most likely just doing their best to be kind, loving and forgiving people.
it is my desire to be quicker to listen, slower to speak and slower to become angry (james 1:19-20).
really lovely post, and so true. Pretty pretty blog!! I'm happy to be your newest follower :)

I completely agree. Actually, I think, to survive, you simply have to put up with a lot of things.
