I'd just put it down to a misunderstanding in which 2 people ended up annoying each other. A bit like that Russell Crowe video with that interviewer at the Noah premiere. I don't think either was in the wrong. It was just a bad misunderstanding that snowballed a bit.Antainenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7091756463128804432.post-43741100558620735722014-03-29T06:25:42.051-07:002014-03-29T06:25:42.051-07:00Ha, I like that moral!

I had an incident during the week - leaving Doctors surgery with wife we discovered the door was locked. I went back up the stairs & said to " lady " at reception - " sorry, the downstairs door seems to be locked " ; her reply, a haugty " and " !. My riposte is not fit for a family blog. So there are a lot of weird/ill-mannered people out there.

Not too long ago, I wasn't out of confession for more than 10 minutes when I had an altercation with a guy crossing the road in front of my bike, involving loud use of a 4-letter expletive by me. The fact was, both of us were actually in the wrong, traffic-wise. I didn't apologise, although I did have the opportunity. Spent the rest of the day feeling bad about it. I suppose I still am, to be retelling it now. jaykayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09067428827648309867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7091756463128804432.post-49456423736925050932014-03-22T11:14:11.384-07:002014-03-22T11:14:11.384-07:00Sound advice, Father.

Does that mean you were an occasion of sin for them? Probably not, as you couldn't have predicted their reaction. Pray for them.
