Quote for March
So often we are tempted to get even or to take advantage of a situation that in the end hurts someone else. Sometimes it is just pure selfishness and greed. Other times we feel it is our right. Most tempting is when we have clearly been wronged and feel we deserve or have the moral approval to do it. I guess the old phrase most commonly used for this was "revenge is sweet." In the long run it just ads to your own misery.

This is interesting. I remember a Cursillo retreat where the speaker had a leash with a collar at the end of it - empty. He called that our anger that we carry around - we walk it like a dog - it controls us & our lives - until we give that anger up & thereby it doesn't control us anymore.
