Meditations on God

It is normal to be angered by things you feel are unfair or unjust.

No one is happy or at peace all of the time.

It is a mistake, however, to allow your anger to guide your decisions.

Anger clouds your judgement and blinds you to the truth.

Anger also divides you, not only from the people around you, but also from yourself.

When you are angry, you cannot think clearly, but you also cannot feel clearly.

Because anger is selfish; it demands all of your attention.

It gives nothing while taking everything.

Anger leaves no room for anything or anyone else.

For this reason, anger is meant to be felt temporarily.

It is a flame inside you that burns hot and fast.

If you attempt to hold onto it, not only will it burn you, but it will begin consuming you as fuel.

When you experience anger, experience it, learn from it, and then let it go.

If you choose to hold onto it, it will hold onto you.
