I have done a heroic job of containing my impatience and wrath.

I saw an interesting sign the other day. It said, "Hating someone is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die."

I don't know if it's appropriate to you or not, but it's something to think about when you're feeling wrathful.

Exactly. Hatred and anger only hurt you, not the person at whom they are directed. That is why we must forgive, forgive, and forgive. If nothing else, do it because it is in your own self-interest.

I've thought about it. That's what wimps tell themselves to justify passivity, fear, confusion, and excessive inhibition when they are being abused, deceived, ridiculed, or otherwise wronged. Blandness is not spoken at my house. People get what they earn. A good kick in the behind is necessary corrective action.
