Thanks for this post! The pick-kindness-over-rightness rule is why I was unsuccessfully married once before and am successfully married today. Being right is usually an opinion, not a fact, and there are few justifiable reasons to alienate people over it.

Great quote: "The bigger problem is that labeling another person reflects a certain way of thinking. It comes from a worldview that sees life as a problem to be solved rather than a mystery to embrace." Thanks for your insightful blogs

Very helpful suggestions — especially for me who, like your brother-in-law, is a Red Sox fan.
