“Holding onto anger is like holding a hot coal. Unless you plan to juggle it for applause, put it down.”
Anger scorches the hand that clings to it. There’s bravado in juggling pain, but no prize worth the blisters. Unless spectacle is your aim, letting go is the wiser show.
Burn vs. Bravado
Some turn their fury into circus tricks, tossing coals and daring the world to watch. But applause fades quickly, and scars linger long.
The Lesson in Release
Anger is not a treasure to guard. Its heat warns, signals, demands action — but once its message is clear, it becomes poison to the holder. The strength is not in gripping tighter, but in setting it down.
Practical Guidance
Read the flame: Hear the message anger delivers, then let it pass.
Reject the performance: Pain is not a stage show worth keeping alive.
Choose healing: Freedom is cooler than applause.
Today’s Practice
Today, drop the coal. The crowd has already gone home.
