So onto gentleness, which is the tool/spoke (attribute) that we will consider today.
Gentleness in our society is often misinterpreted and equated with weakness, especially with men. Very few men would probably seek out the description of "he is a gentle man," but in the same line of thought, we seek to be considered gentlemen. Interesting thought considering they both mean the same thing.
Gentleness is one of the most powerful of all the tools within our backpack. It is born out of a person who also has great patience and is at peace with themselves. It is a person that does not need to control others by force. It is a reflection of a truly mature and wise individual.
