wisdom and patience

The Bible says, "A man's wisdom gives him patience; it is his glory to overlook an offense." Patience comes from wisdom, and wisdom comes from hearing the perspective of others. Listening says, "I value your opinion, I care about our relationship, and you matter to me." The cliche' is true: People don't care what we know until they know we care.

~ Rick Warren, The Purpose Driven Life (day 20)
