This snake crawled over a sharp saw and was left bleeding by its cut. In anger, the snake wrapped the Saw with its thick body and proceeded to squeeze the life out of the Saw. 

Sadly, with each angry squeeze on the saw, it felt more pain. The snake continued because it wasn’t going to let the Saw get away with the pain it had caused it. 

The snake, refusing to let go of the Saw, eventually died from more cuts that resulted to loss of blood. It failed to realize that the whole time, she needed to let go of the initial pain and focus on its future; where it was going. 

Unfortunately the snake eventually lost its life because of an uncontrollable anger and quest for vengeance.

This can be you reading me now. 

I hope you know that it’s not all battles that are worth fighting for. At times, letting go is actually a way of winning through.

Most of the actions you’ve taken when you are angry has always turned back to hurt you. 

Most of the decisions inclusive you made when you are angry has always turned out to be the wrong one. 

I have been on this table, so I know how it feels. 

It is the reason why I am sharing this with you today and hope it yields a lasting fruit in your heart. 

You are on your right, I know.

You are innocent, I know.

You are strong and would fight your way through that provocative scene, I know.

But, walking away might be the best thing to do at that moment. 

Learn to control your anger.

Don’t say that it is not possible to do so. You can. You just need to position your mind to it and make a conscious effort towards it. 

Forgive those that hurt you and move on.

Walk away from that which drains your mental peace or hurts you always. Holding unto it might be you, giving it license to take your life.

Don’t be like the snake in this picture.

I wish you the best, always.
