This is essentially a recap of Lesson No. 6 - Catching Flies. One ought to speak nicely to others.
I can't understand for the life of me why some people think that their inability to control their tongue is something others ought to understand, allow, excuse.
There is absolutely no excuse for cursing at others, name-calling, etc.
And there is absolutely no reason why someone who hasn't the self-control to watch his/her mouth should think that he/she doesn't have to apologize.
At the same time, apologies are not sufficient.
Only a concentrated effort to exert self control is. Do what ever you need to do--count to ten, walk away, put it on paper, but DON'T open your mouth if you can't control what comes out of it.
(Okay, can you tell I'm angry right now with someone I love?)
