However, more often than not, the most insightful thoughts were not my own, but were those attributable to some unknown author, who was inspired to memorialize his words of wisdom long, long ago. Because I have found them so helpful, I will share these bits of wisdom with you from time to time. I do not claim authorship, and share them only with the hope that they also bring you a similar bit of peace, understanding and, perhaps, what some may call “enlightenment.”

As the first entry in this category:

“Anger is the wind which blows out the candle of intelligence.”
