This is the advice that, given what has happened to me today, I find terribly important. I e-mailed this quote to the girl that I heard bad-mouthing me. I hope that all of you can take something from it as well.
"Any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain, but it takes character and self control to be understanding and forgiving."
- Dale Carnegie
The next time you are railing someone for something they've done or said, just think about how you would be a much better person just to show some empathy, and forgive them for it.

Its always easier to break down then build up. It takes a few seconds and little effort to break a person apart to make them better it takes lots of time, energy, and care.
How did she respond to the quote? It seems more like a great comeback and a good self-pleasing way to do it.
I'm not sure she's gotten it yet. If she has, she has chosen to ignore the entire situation.

You have a unique voice, so bravely verbalize your thoughts and opinions. The only person that can stop you is yourself.
I really like that quote, thank you for sharing it.
That was very mature of you : )
Did she reply?
This really improved my day, thanks.
Caity =)

i agree. takes much less strength to hold a grudge than to forgive.
that was very smart!
