There's really no point being angry with the people you love.
Sure, you might do a "tit for tat", give an eye for an eye. But at the end of the day, what are you trying to do? Prove a point? Spite them?
An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.
-Ghandi
Why in the world would you want to hurt someone whom is dear to you? They might not even be around tomorrow. Nor you.
Time is very precious. And we're running out of it - every day, every hour, every minute. This very second.
Some things are not worth holding on to. Anger is one of them. Sometimes, the person you're angry with might not even know it. So all that effort and energy put into being angry only puts a toll on your body. For what? It's too troublesome.
If you have to make a point, and it's someone you love, then Trust that there's enough Love for you to put that point across, and for them to receive it. Just be sure to do it only when the anger has subsided.
Have you let go of your Anger today?
People sometimes don\'t hesitate to anger, yet slow to show love.
In fact, today we tend to be shy to tell our loved ones we love them; only waiting for special occasions to do so.
Pride and self pity usually gets in the way, or the fear of being vulnerable. Or sometimes it\'s because they don\'t love themselves, that\'s why they can\'t love.
If the relationship means that much to us, then it definitely deserves the time, to give each other the benefit of doubt.
If we knew that tomorrow would never come, I am sure we spend those last moments, showing how much we love.
But why wait? Carpe Diem! Live Loved.
By the way, You are Loved Much! ;)
However,sometimes we just couldn't control ourselves. ):
Normally when we are angry,we didn't even think if what is being said will hurt others anot.

I'm considering to get a Macbook.
Do you think its good compared to other brands?
Thank you.
But sometimes you cant help yourself,then you start getting at yourself.
Sighs i gess it's good to let go of the anger, haaha.
Thanks for this timely reminder.
If only everyone is more forgiving, life will be better, I am sure. I also don't understand why some people still hold on to their anger to make themselves more miserable, and worse hurt others in the process. It is such a pity that relation-ships are strained as a result.
letting go - 解脱
only after letting go 'sadness and anger' of today,
then will colorful rainbows grow tomorrow.
-Believe me. Eating sweet stuff, especially ice cream really helps alot!
and I thought that quote was so true back then when I first saw. tho it slips my mind once in a while.
Have you let go of your Anger today? "
Agree, I think it's better this way. Words could come out wrong, and horribly hurtful, when one/both parties are boiling in anger.
What if the person doesn't see my point or is trying to ignore it? Wouldn't that hurt grow? Still, have to let go of the anger and bitterness, and only God can.
you got to be in a higher level of thinking before you can actually "let go of your anger".
When you are angry, you are angry ...can't help

it made my day.
and to me, losing one minute getting angry over a small issue. youre wasting one minute of potential good quality time to spend with your dearest, you see. when youre angry, situation get out of control. the best thing is to drop the subject.. and have a peace of mind lohh,.. i mean, thats what i believe..
Btw, just curious. Why second deconstruction, not first?
It's because you care for someone therefore you feel sad for them.
It's because you love someone therefore you feel angry with them."
It is difficult to tell yourself not to be angry with the people you love because you care for them. You want them to change for the better. Can you tell yourself not to be angry with a loved one if that person has done something wrong? The answer is no. Even though you don't want to be angry with them, you will still do so because you love them too deeply. The more you love someone, the more you feel for them, the more you don't want them to be hurt, the more you don't want them to walk on the wrong path.
It is not a waste of time, neither is it pointless to be angry with someone. It is only so if you let your loved ones turn for the worse. That is foolish.
Nevertheless, "Forgive and forget" is still the underlying principle. It's alright to feel angry but it's not alright to let that anger be permanent.
Has alway seen you on tv programs. You always seem so cheerful and bright.
But i spend about 5 hrs reading your blog and realize you are normal too.
I mean no offence, cos i thought celebrity are glamorous and they wouldn't bring their personal emotions to public. But u prove me wrong.
Keep working hard. :)
