Rocks

If you squeeze a rock in your hand, who get's hurt? That's right. You do. I like this parable, although I have to admit that sometimes it comes back to bite me too. But it's true. Anger, grudges, resentment, etc. can hurt lots of people, but the person they hurt most is the person who is angry, carries the grudge, or is resentful. It's like they keep squeezing that rock. The rock never crumbles. But as I have learned from a book I'm reading Touching Spirit Bear, anger cannot be forgotten. This is true too. I guess we have to learn how to channel our anger.
