Right on Annie. Praying for a person with a crisis, disease, loss, and REAL MAN is the best solution. since we all have certain flaws in our character that offend others, prayer for the offender (and offended) helps me to deal with resentment and anger (one of MY flaws). This is something I learned via AA. Since I seem to be powerless over another person's actions, beliefs, judgement, I try to let the Creator take control of such matters. I can state my own opinion and thats all. I would rather be happy, helpful And at peace instead of wasting my time stewing over a person's incensitivity. Thanks Annie; you have powerful introspection and admire your insights. Hopefully, WE can stick to are main objectives and try to tolerate the indignities of others and not be tempted to stray from the purpose of our site
