This For That

[noticed here from this blog, via Jordon Cooper]

In the same way that others need to come to grips with my uniqueness and special gifts, so I also must grow up in my conversations and relationships. Marginal leaders know better than most that feelings are easily hurt and we don't have the luxury of trampling over the feelings of others with a 'damn them all', 'love me or screw you' attitude. Restraint is called for. Maturity is not optional. It is a lesson that I continue to learn, often suffering the consequences of my extreme temperament. I cannot expect people to understand my heart when I damage with my mouth.
