The world is filled with difficult people. It is impossible to avoid them. (You may have one, in particular, in your life right now.) In dealing with such people, we often try a number of coping strategies. Unfortunately, our best attempts at making peace often fail. This is because the difficult people in our lives are often what the Bible calls "fools." And dealing with fools requires a special kind of biblical wisdom. Why not test your own relational intelligence by taking the following little quiz? Answer yes or no to the following questions...
Do you feel the difficult person in your life is displeased with you most of the time?

Do you spend time devising remedies to make your difficult person happier?
Do you believe that he or she is really a good person who is just "difficult to get along with" sometimes?
When you feel your difficult person's anger, do you change the way you behave?
Do you try to appease his or her anger?

Does your difficult person define your life? Do you see yourself as the person they think you are?
Do they tell what you should think about things in general and about yourself in particular?
Do you ever think, This isn't so bad ?
