“Anger is not logical and cannot be boxed into airtight compartments — or 24-hour periods. It is altogether too easy to hang on to our anger until we get our way. But the Bible tells us to “not let the sun go down on our wrath.” In other words, 1) deal with it and 2) deal with it quickly. Deal with it and turn loose.”
Carol Rae, Florence
“It gets down to the way couples disagree. One should always honor the other partner, even in times of disharmony. When each partner is considerate of the other’s feelings, the couple can pray through and resolve problems without either person feeling threatened, whether it takes minutes, hours or days.”
Fred Barnett, Florence
“Well, this is a little hard for me, because we’ve never really had that problem. I always tell people you have to be conversant, communicate about things and always clean up behind yourself. I guess that’s a part of me that I learned while I was in the military.”
Jacqueline Barnett, Florence
“I always try to live by my own rule of talking things out and not going to bed angry. That’s a no-no in my book. If something happened to one of you while you were asleep, you would never had the chance to say, ‘I am sorry.” So, never go to bed angry!’”
