Anger is self-punishment for another person's behaviour. You swallow the poison hoping they'll suffer but it's you who feels the pain.
When you pause instead of explode, you protect your mind. When you let go instead of holding grudges, you free your heart. When you choose calmness, you win without fighting.
The Buddha taught that holding onto anger is like holding a hot coal - you burn yourself first.
Let go of anger. Protect your peace. Don't punish ourself for someone else's behaviour.
With Metta,
Da
