One of the rules of life: #53 Be Nice

My friend gave me the book "The Rules of Life" as a belated birthday present.
Not really my thing but I read it through on the flight from Toronto to Los Angeles.
Interesting.
Some good ideas.
Simple rules - but some that are hard to live by.

Like rule #53: Be Nice.

I broke that one today. It doesn't matter what provoked it, I still didn't take the higher ground.

Repercussions will likely be felt tomorrow.
The worst possible outcome: there are no repercussions and I'm greeted with silence...
