Something to think about...

I remember reading some of Martin Luther King's writings for a class I took in college. You know how some things that you hear or read stay with you for a long time? Well, the following quote has stayed with me for years and has helped me deal with many of situations.

We must combine the toughness of the serpent with the softness of the dove, a tough mind with a tender heart.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
 
It comes out of Jesus' instruction to his disciples when he sends them out in Matthew 10:16...

I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.
