I actually just asked my husband last night what I do that most irritates him. The answer surpised me and I’m going to work on it but it was soooo hard to not sit and justify why I do that (because I feel I have a valid reason LOL).

What a challenge! I’m not sure I want to hear my ‘irritating’ things spoken out loud! I do appreciate the reminder though to actively pursue thoughtful responses rather than reactions.

I’ve been following your blog since the blog party. I love how you emphasize self-control here, because it made me think of a definition I looked up a while back.

I’m writing a novel and wanted to verify *hysteria* was the word I actually wanted. I was away from home but there was a narrow dictionary nearby, and its single-line definition has stuck with me ever since:

*Defective emotional control.*

This is one area where I particularly want to be “controlled by the Spirit.”

Blessings on your day!
