Self-observation: In my life, when wronged, hurt, disappointed, or just plain screwed over, I have chosen anger over forgiveness and held a grudge instead of letting go. On the flip side, I have also forgiven, let go, found understanding and even wished wrong-doers well. I can say from repeated experience, the latter brought me true contentment and peace. I was only chasing my own tail when it came to anger...there was nothing to truly bite or to get even with but a piece of myself. Anger and the crave of revenge are the voice of your lying, fear-driven ego, love and forgiveness is the truthful voice of your soul. Your soul knows the way, listen to it...always choose to forgive, try to understand, and let go of fear and anger and let the love in. It all sounds so very cliche, but for a reason...it is timeless, universal truth.
