“The best way to destroy an enemy

is to make him a
friend.”

— Abraham
Lincoln

Wouldn’t
you love to have a friend around with the wisdom and common sense of Abraham
Lincoln? I think it would be so interesting hearing his famous quips in real
life.

I
am grateful for them now because most that I read are so timeless. Wisdom has a
way of being that way.

This
quote above is one of my personal favorites, and I’ve taken it to heart in my
life more and more as I’ve grown. I don’t see any sense whatsoever in having
enemies of any kind. Struggle and fighting do not achieve long term objectives.
The best use of our skills would be to turn the tables on a potential enemy and
make them a friend. What a difference that makes for all concerned.
