Anger is the part of you that loves you the most. It shows up when you’re being mistreated, ignored, or disrespected. It’s a signal–calling you to step away from what’s harming you. Whether it’s a room, a job, a relationship, or an old version of yourself, anger lets you know when it’s time to walk away. If you learn to listen to it, to trust it, and make it your ally, it won’t need to shout so loudly. That conversation never left me–it changed the way I see myself. – Author unknown

“Even though you may want to more forward in your life, you may have one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn how to let go. Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back from a new life. What is it you would let go of today?” – Mary Manin Morissey
“The world needs anger. The world often continues to allow evil because it isn’t angry enough.” – Bede Jarrett
