Poison

I have you no more.
 

Anger.  Frustrations to the point of tears.

 

 

 

Life, you are so hard sometimes. 

 

You were hardly ever fair.

Some one was always causing me pain.

 

 

But life does not have to be perfect to be beautiful.  There is beauty found in the details.  I could spend my entire life trying to find justice.  I could spend a lifetime angry at the troubles I had to go through.

 

But I cannot do that.  I won’t.

 

Frustration, you are a part of life.  I realize that now.  We cannot have life without taking the frustrations along with it. 

 

But the frustrations can be overcome.

 

The only way to overcome frustration is to somehow rise above the circumstances.  It is hard, but it is the only way.  And by rising above you can truly see that life is beautiful from the top.

 

 

 

Anger, I cannot choose you.  You only make things worse, and cause me to become blind to the details.  The details that make all of the difference.  The details that contain infinite beauty.

 

Anger, you yourself seemed so beautiful.  At the time, the cup you offered me seemed to contain the sweetest liquid.  It seemed that you alone could quench my thirst for revenge, and take the place of my deepest needs.

 

 

But being angry at someone, is like drinking poison and expecting them to die.

 

 

I will not drink that poison any more.

 

No matter how I have been wronged, I will forgive.

 

I will take the cup of bitterness, hold the chalice of deep burgundy liquid in my hand, then pour it out onto the ground.

 

I will take the poison, and destroy it.

 

 

Can you imagine a world without hatred?  A beautiful world it would be.

A perfect world. 

 

Every thought we think is instantly created.  Once created, it goes somewhere. 

By thinking and holding onto anger, we only create more negativity in the world.

 

We can’t change the world, but we can change ourselves.

 

Reach for the light, it is the only way to destroy hatred. 

By striving towards it, the hatred looses its grip on your soul, and all of it’s power dissolves into meaninglessness.

 

 

Reach for hope,

 

 

that is the only way to find love.

Its like a poem. It honestly is like a poem.

A poem I agree with. Anger is like a poison. Not as much as to the the body but to the mind.
You get rid of it and you might be better off.
Not only get rid of anger but hatred. Hatred is a huge huge problem in the world!
It is a worse poison in my mind than anger or anything else. You get rid of both mabye finally we will have a happier world to live in.
