Gentleness

Today, I didn't go to the YMCA, but I felt to handle my situation with gentleness. A soft answer can really turn away wrath. So many times in my life, especial during curtain times of the month, I would/and do feel overwhelmed, angry and sad. Sometimes with don't even connect to where or why we feel this way, but those emotions are definitely evident. In those times, one of the things I need the most is my husband wrap me in his arms and let me bury my head in his chest for a few tears. It serves as a release for me, time to allow myself to feel. Plus, knowing that someone may not understand but they care enough to just lend a shoulder instead of telling me how irrational I may be behaving or feeling.
Today, was a day for me to do this for someone else, to love them enough to look past what they are doing and just hold them. Instead of speaking harsh, when you may be completely justified to do so, just answer softly and kindly. We never could truly understand what someone may be going through but we don't need to really.
