“Anger is a rattle shaken in an empty crib.”
Noise without nurture cannot soothe. Anger fills space with sound, but leaves nothing behind. Like a toy without touch, it clatters but does not comfort.
Sound vs. Silence
A rattle can call attention, but if no one comes to hold the child, it becomes only echo. Anger too, if unanswered by care, remains hollow.
The Lesson in Expression
Anger has its place — it alerts, demands, signals — but without connection it rattles into emptiness. Real healing requires not just sound but response, not just fury but tenderness.
Practical Guidance
Listen deeper: Ask what your anger is really trying to signal.
Seek comfort: Replace the rattle with arms that hold.
Choose response: Let anger point the way, but let love walk it.
Today’s Practice
Today, when anger rattles, reach for comfort instead of clamour.
