Post the sayings, stories and parables here that you find some truth in about the human condition or which inspire you to be a smarter, wiser and more capable person. Regardless of their origins I am sure we can all learn something.

There is holding on anger and doing nothing about what makes you angry.
And there is holding your anger, and dealing with what makes you angry in calmly fashion.

I'm saying the second scenario is not like drinking poison, in a good number of situations anger adds to the problem or extends its period instead of solving it.

I read a quote similar to this after a traumatic experience and it hit very close to home.

It's hard because so often being angry when we feel we are in the right or have had some injustice inflicted upon us can feel good. But it's like anything that can become addictive. In the end we just are doing damage to ourselves.
