Speak no evil

“I will speak ill of no man, and speak all the good I know of everybody.”

-Ben Franklin

My mother was always quick to point out when I would open my mouth and insert my foot.  She always said, “If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.”  Needless to say I grew up a quiet child. 

I’m learning there is a point when you must take a stand.  Someone once said, sometimes anger is the necessary energy needed to set boundaries.  JMD
