I Ching 'In cultivating oneself, it is best to root out bad habits and tolerate those that are harmless'
Basically what this is saying folks is - it's OK to indulge as long as you don't overdue it and it's not harmful in the long run

I Ching 'Pleasant manners succeed even with irritable people.' we wei's comment - 'If you do not allow the irritability of others to affect your own pleasant conduct, your pleasant conduct then influences them.' Pretty much what this is saying folks - is even if somebody is a miserable hater in your presence - kill em with kindness

It is well known that “Jesus wept” is the shortest verse in the Bible, so I wondered why he was crying. For some context: John 11:32-35If Jesus is all-powerful and all-knowing, why was his presence necessary to prevent the death of the brother? And if the death of the brother means that the brother is in Heaven, why are Mary and Jesus crying at all?
