Morning Paul:

That's an interesting perspective. Peace, harmony, love and faith - those are all things to aim for in our lives. Avoidance has worked for me in order to achieve the first 2 but I've never lost sight of the rest. Regardless of how peaceful and harmonious things are - one is always aware of something missing, something wrong. It never really goes away if it isn't resolved.

But, as you know - it takes 2 to Tango. I do believe that when you offer peace - it is more likely to be returned. However, many can remember the dozens of broken olive branches I held onto.

But I don't aggravate. I don't have expectations. I don't attack. I have gone forward and let it be. Perhaps that is the best way. It doesn't make things worse and it doesn't make the setting unpleasant. Always open to the possibility of trying to maintain peace.

Yes, this is the best for me for now.
