I've always wondered......don't we all have the right to get angry at times?

 

[purpledove]

I think it can't be helped there are certain irritating traits in people and life's many experiences/ events that we get ticked off at times. Maybe the only difference is IF we allow ourselves to let our anger control us instead of us controlling our anger. When we allow the former to overcome us, is when we become a prisoner of our own emotions leading us to maltreat others.

The way our ego works to avoid being bruised and as normal human tendency to protect it, we refuse to accept that our anger led us to hurt others. Over and over again such many experiences in life- makes our heart hardened we can no longer be open to forgive others? So what happens next.......

 

[purpledove]

For people who have caused pain to others through their uncontrolled lashing out and anger- Can they look in another person's eyes to say honestly that they're happy and contented in life

OR does that leave them miserable and pessimistic

 

[purpledove]

Can forgiveness and open mindedness, acceptance of one's mistakes/weaknesses set one free?? For one to be able to say, joy is achieved one day at a time. That such joy may transmit affirmative energy somehow affecting positively our dealings with others everyday.....

......it's not about how good we are in making people love us. But it's how well we are in making them feel we love them ♥

Impossible is NOT a word. It's just a reason for someone not to try

“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill.

It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.

I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.”

“To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.”

If you wait to do everything when you're sure it's right, you'll probably never do much of anything
