Anger
"Then
the miracle happened - to me! It isn't always so sudden with everyone,
but I ran into a personal crisis which 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 to 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 love."
1976 AAWS, Alcoholics Anonymous, p. 228
Thought to Consider ...
Anger is the hot wind that extinguishes the light of reason.
