STOP AND THINK – The world is full of cactus; but you don’t have to sit on it. (Proverb)
Like a cactus forest, the world is filled with thorny situations and bristly people. They can’t always be avoided. Some people seem to dwell on those thorny situations in life; they almost seem to take pleasure in their problems and hurts. The healthier person, however, tries to avoid the bristles and concentrate on the more pleasant aspects of life.
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. (Romans 12:21)
