I wish, when things get tense between me and people that I care about, that I could have an extra minute to take a little time-out. Maybe there would be a device that I could carry in my pocket that has a little button.
When I press the button, time would stop for just 60 seconds. During that time I could gather my thoughts, figure out what I really want to say and why, and then continue the conversation.
I suppose that is too much to ask.
