When rage is all you have left in you, know that you’ve surrendered yourself to the betrayal of the world.
When rage becomes a silent scream or a deliberate protest, despite your best intentions, you are still defined by that betrayal.
When rage colours your view of the world, you see demons in angels, and persecution in love, because they both, the angels and the love, carry with them the threat of a broken trust.
Worse still, when rage defines your response to life, you not only reject anything that demands trust, but you strike preemptively at the hint of what you once courted, hurting the ones invested in your peace.
When we view the world through angry eyes, innocence is tainted, sincerity appears as manipulation, and affection feels like a self-serving act of the one offering it.
Discarding the good doesn’t only deny you that good, it also creates space for the festering wounds of the past to contaminate even more beauty and innocence that once filled those spaces.
Breathe, beloved…
Just breathe…
Don’t let the betrayers of your past cause you to betray your future.
