A Balance

Prodigal: I like the balance of this quilt.

Me: Balance is a good thing.

This is from How to Have That Difficult Conversation by Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend

Every good relationship has a balance of yeses and nos. If you never said no to anything, you would be a puppet. If you never said yes, you would be a dictator. In the middle is the give and take of a good relationship, in which you negotiate and persist when something is important to you.

But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. Luke 22:32 (KJV)
