What is it called?  Foot in Mouth, speaking before thinking?  Any way you wrap it, angry words can get you into a world of trouble.  If counting to 10 doesn't work, try taking to God.  

Sure, you can sidestep a mistake, but you will most likely make that mistake over and over.  Accountability is a tough pill to take.  But unless you take accountability for your actions and results, you will never get on a better path.  You are you.  You will make mistakes. 

Excuses, the first line of defense for failure.  Instead of opening your mouth, spend time with God and let Him chart a path that brings you to a better place.  The truth always works.

Not if, but when.  We all experience failure in life, sometimes more than just once.  We might not be able to see a reason to get back up, but God does.  Don't rely on just your feelings.  Allow God to give an assist.  He will do that.

Acccountability is tough.  You have to look in the mirror and accept what you see.  Being accountable is the pathway to integrity and healing.  Not an easy task, but always necessary.

The Apostle Paul said, when I was a child, I talked like a child.  When I became a man, I put childlsh ways behind me.  Okay, so you're still that child inside.  Problem is, it's time to grow up.  Ask God for the courage to make that change, today.

Broken relationships are tough.  What's even tougher is getting the other person to accept responsibility (partial or full) for what happened.  God washes us clean with His forgivness.  Can you do the same for someone you're having trouble with?

Yeah, the honeymoon is over, now comes the reality of life. One word, comprimise, will help give birth to that lasting bond you pledged to each other on day one.  Rather than look at the other person, take a look at who you are.  Then, take a second look at who you are, together.

Hatred is powerful and it can and will destroy you and others in your path.  Hatred is darkness and destruction.  God is forgivness and healing.  If that's where you're at, take a moment and have a conversation with God, today.

Yeah, your kids are suffering more than you, more than you know.  They are innocent victims of your conflict, sometimes used as tools against the other parent.  Do not forget how important it is to make sure they are taken care of emotionally, as well.  You are still a parent, married or divorced, and it's still your responsibility.
