In this episode we look at a question sent in about dealing with difficult people.In L M Montgomery's Anne of Green Gables, Anne Shirley exhibits a complete lack of stoic regulation of emotion when she meets Rachel Lynde, by having an explosive argument when Lynde criticises Anne's appearance. However, after stoic Matthew Cuthbert helps Anne reflect, she uses this as a guide, and eventually learns through the course of her development, to appreciate the power of the pause, to protect her inner peace.
