Before I left for work today. I made a comment to my wife, that was dripping with sarcasm. She took the high road and simply responded to my question and allowed me to leave without lashing out.
Typically, whenever my wife lets me off the hook without retaliating, God will step in with a sucker punch.
I call it a sucker punch for two reasons:
- I knew the punch was coming, because I crossed the line.
- Whenever a person gives up their right to be right, for the sake of preserving peace and displaying maturity, the wrongdoer always winds up belittling himself (i.e. thus confirming his "sucker" status.)
The people we are most intimate with or close to, are also the ones we are most familiar with. As a result, these are the same people we are most likely to mistreat or disregard.
It may be true that "you don't what you've got until it's gone." But it isn't necessary to lose the one you love, so that you can learn to stop taking them for granted.
My prescription to cure this ailment, comes from my own mentor, Dr. LaSalle R. Vaughn.
When you're wrong, admit it. When you're right, be quiet.
To my bride and best friend, Mrs. Wick Daddy (a/k/a Nipa), thank you for helping me for the past 15 years. I love you.
I also would like to thank my pastors/mentors for excellent teaching and last but not least, you, party people, for allowing me to keep it real.
Peace y'all.............
