Talking Down From A Safe Place

Over the years I've seen how much I've grown. I have a lot more patience when people start being rude towards me I just walk off and try to escape the conflict, but lately I'm really starting to see myself slide back to my older self. I almost started to argue back and ready to put my hands on a rough talking individual. I had to check myself though because I know once I start I won't stop until I knock a person jaw out of line. I remembered I have so much to lose. Can't be arguing with simple minded broke individuals. ^.^/
