The more anger towards the past you carry in your heart…
“The more anger towards the past you carry in your heart, the less capable you are of loving in the present. The sound of a kiss is not as loud as a cannon but its echo last a lot longer. A positive attitude may not solve all of your problems but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Most of us ask for advice when we know the answer already but we want another one. A beauty is a woman he notices, a charmer is one who notices him.”
