Teach Your Offspring To Be Good Stewards Of Their Genitalia
Samson Society offers the opportunity to befriend Christian men from all different backgrounds / circumstances. Years ago, I had the privilege of getting to know one man who shared with me how he (as a now married adult with children of his own) bravely bemoaned to his parents their refusal to educate him (during his childhood) relative to masturbation. And interestingly enough, his parents were very intelligent, articulate, A+ parent-types (atypical) versus some of your more typical deep South dumbass adults who obliquely equate good parenting with "making sure your kids are in church".
Masturbation is a big part of most children's lives. Even females. Therefore, parents are obligated to educate their children regarding what can be a very awkward topic. Because if they don't, the children are left to their own devices in terms of coming to grips (sorry) with what to do with this extraordinarily pleasurable physical experience.

Stricken Christian? It Just Might Equate To One's Quality Of Faith
Angie, (my wife) pre-stroke (this past May), loved taking showers and hot baths. That's not the case at all today. Due to her disability (primarily the limited mobility within her left arm, but also the weakness in her legs), she has to take her showers seated on a plastic bench with a shower wand in her right hand (which is her fully capable arm).

The Antidote To Self-Destruction / Beware The Cycle Of Stupidity
Many years ago, I was running my typical course through the older neighborhoods north of our own when I began to be chased by a large dog. I can't remember if I was training for my first 5K or not. Perhaps. I do know it was early one Saturday morning during the cold (for Mississippi) winter months. Nonetheless, the dog bit me on my left leg at my Achilles' Heel (as I continued on my way), and, as you might imagine, it hurt and frightened me terribly.

Don't Be A Communication Coward / Refuse To Terminate Relationships (Personal Or Professional) Through The Written Word
To terminate a relationship is a big deal, and there are times when it's necessary both personally or professionally. Therefore, as such, handling the termination calls for finesse and respect. For how you handle it reinforces your muster as an individual. Plus, it makes you respectful by providing the other party an opportunity to hear directly from you and respond as they see fit to. This is what decent human beings do.

Acknowledge Your Brokenness. Pivot From There To Christ.
Here in the Deep South, we tend to point out other's faults as a mainstay of our culture, keeping a historical record along the way.
We do this in lieu of stating the obvious (log within our own eye) and allowing our focus to be therein.
