"cruelty"

I believe one’s right to be angry does not foster one a right to be cruel. Just because two people argue does not mean that they don’t love each other. But we are responsible for our cruel actions no matter how we feel. For Contest: Etheree Me In Honor Of: Andrea Dietrich

you know Moses, this means so much to me, in my life, and the one close to me. im sending this to my favs. its so true, you have the right to be angry, but true love will mend these problems, but if one can't accept that, and let their anger take over them, then cruelty is what they show, not only to others involved, but to themselves. ~Always&Forever Lynette
