Truth or Consequences

It has long baffled me how easily we can yell ugly words at our spouse or partner, a person we love so dearly. But why THIS person? Why not others? It’s not as if we don’t get angry at other people, we just don’t resort to that ugliness.

Or our child stains a brand new outfit after being told not to wear it out to play, and we want to yell at her for not listening to us.

But something holds us back in these relationships. Something prevents us from blasting our boss or our children with our unchained wrath. What is it?

It’s pretty simple, really. It’s CONSEQUENCES.
