Life is full of choices. Life is also filled with lots of hectic situations. All these require us to make wise decision; to assess, evaluate and decide which is better.
I posed a thought to my children. Which is better? To be grateful or thankful to the person or to be angry with the person?
Most will choose to be angry when irritated. Not many would choose to be grateful and thankful. You have heard that courtesy begets courtesy. So in the same manner if you hit a rock with your fist, you will feel the pain as if the rock just hit you.
So the lesson here is: Better to be kind and receive kindness than knocking yourself out in the end.
When the next time you feel like retaliating, try redeeming and repaying with kindness. Try to say 'thank you so and so' for every little act others do to you and observe the results.
