Steem greetings to everyone, hope we're all doing great.

<div class="text-justify">One evening when I alone, observing the sunset, listening and analysing my inner thoughts, and enjoying the cool evening breeze, I came across a wonderful sight, little children playing.
One might ask why this seemed so wonderful to me, well in truth, it's not that I enjoyed the game a lot but it's how they play the game that caught my attention. They were so carefree, light hearted and happy, really happy. Then i thought to myself, why this is so. As i kept watching them run across the streets, throwing dirt in the air and laughing, I noticed the Love they had for one another so great one of the girl could easily forgive and forget the offense of her playmate, all because she still wanted to play. Now imagine she hadn't let go of that little incident and remained angry, what do think would have happened?</div>

<div class="text-justify">I have heard a lot about anger and seen quite a few incidents of what anger can cause. It's not a physical thing but it can destroy the hardest thing you can think of if left untamed and there's no better way to tame anger other than with love. Showing acts of love prompt reciprocation. It's more or less like a reflex action, you would most likely love those who love you or at least do nothing to hurt them. Someone once told me that,
"*if you love someone wholeheartedly, there won't be much the person can do to anger you"*. To me this is true in every sense. Think of a mother, and her beloved son. A little boy who still has a lot of years and exploring ahead of him. If this boy commits the most grievous of sins, the mother love will overcome her anger in the end. She loves him, that's all. She may be hurt, but she loves him anyway. Now my Bible also tells me something about what love can do for us;</div>
>Most important of all, continue to show deep love for each other, for love covers a multitude of sins.
-1 Peter 4:8 NLT.

<div class="text-justify">Another important tool in reducing the burden on your soul is *FORGIVENESS* This helps to effectively reduce anger issues, because when we are able to let go, quickly, we get rid of the grudge/anger. Now think about this analogy, when you don't forgive, will you now expect people to forgive you? No man is above mistakes, no man is perfect, but forgiveness can help us move even with the shortcomings of others. When we don't forgive, it shows pride and stupidity in a way. Why? Well we must have wronged others, even more powerful and perhaps deadly too, but one way or the other, you're here because they managed to forgive you. Unforgiven ess condemns you to unforgiveness, you're indirectly say others shouldn't forgive you when you wrong them. Unforgiveness lays a great weight to the soul.</div>
