No matter how bad a situation is, ultimately it is you who is in charge of how you react to it.

I know it may be hard to believe, but no one can make you angry.  No one can make you cry.

Yes, people can behave in ways that you do not prefer, but ultimately it is always your choice on how you choose to react to their actions.

Have an argument with someone?

Okay, now that it is over you can choose to let it go and no longer think about it.  It is your choice.  If you choose to dwell on it, then you will only be damaging yourself.

It may be tempting to want to hold on to anger because:  “You know you were right”  or because “That is not fair”, but anger weakens you over time.  You may feel empowered by anger, but it wreaks havoc on your body and your health….

When it comes to arguments (especially with spouses) Kim Miller use to teach:  “I would rather be happy than right.”

The law of attraction tells us that we get more of what we feel like, so if you allow yourself to feel angry often, you will be attracting more things for you to feel angry about.
