Then the miracle happened -- to me!
It isn't always so sudden with everyone,
but I ran into a personal crisis
that filled me with a raging and righteous anger.
And as I fumed helplessly
and planned to get good and drunk and show them,
my eye caught a sentence in the book lying open on my bed.
"We cannot live with anger."
The walls crumpled -- and the light streamed in.
I wasn't trapped. I wasn't helpless. I was free,
and I didn't have to drink to "show them."
This wasn't "religion" -- this was freedom!
Freedom from anger and fear, freedom to know happiness,
and freedom to know love.

Thought to Ponder....

Anger is the wind that blows out the light of reason.
