Bite Your Tongue

Guard your tongueSt Monica when your husband is angry.

For Reflection: 

What good practical wisdom! (See tomorrow’s Graceline to see why St. Monica’s advise is so wise.) I will do an examine to discover why “guarding” my tongue is so hard for me in these instances (pride, the need to be right, a lack of charity, impatience, unbridled anger on my part, undisciplined temper, lack of respect?) and practice the virtue opposite it to keep my tongue in check – and discuss the issue with him when he is calm.
