" - our jealousy,
anger, hatred, fear -
can be put to an end.
When you realize
that these emotions
are only temporary,
that they always pass on
like clouds in the sky,
you also realize
they can ultimately be
abandoned. "
Tenzin Gyatso
" I am the daughter
of Earth and Water,
" I pass through the pores
but I cannot die...."
Percy Bysshe Shelley,
"The Cloud"

I can easily end it all but the anger because there is so much to be angry about and a peaceful heart can not fight the wrongs. I will be fire for a while longer yet.
