Be completely humble and gentle.
The troubles of life can make us cranky and out of sorts, but we should never excuse these bouts of bad behavior.
Gentleness is a willingness to accept limitations and ailments without taking out our aggravation on others. It shows gratitude for the smallest service rendered and tolerance for those who do not serve us well. It puts up with bothersome people.
It speaks softly in the face of provocation. It can be silent; for calm, unruffled silence is often the most eloquent response to unkind words.
