Maybe one of the kindest things we can do for ourselves, and those around us, is to be fast to forgive.
Anger is toxic
It acts on us like a poison. Hold onto anger for long enough and it makes us ill, physically and mentally.
Anger is contagious too
Angry people tend to make others angry… who then make others angry.
Ralph Waldo Emerson gave us a reminder of another great reason, for letting go of anger. He said; “For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind”. Wise words indeed.
