patience with kevin townley was the 3rd paramita. he said something about not reacting to provocation, and about how he avoided family for 30 years because they annoyed and provoked him, and how reacting to provocation can just exacerbate relations. i thought of my reaction to the hybrid zionist. i saw how futile the anger was, how it escalated as we tred to cancel each other out with words. i'm grateful it was only words, and i'm grateful it passed and it didn't last, though the terrible events that brought forth his anger and mine are still going on.
