We continue our journey through the Seven Deadly Sins* with Wrath (Latin, Ira), also known as “rage”, may be described as inordinate and uncontrolled feelings of hatred and anger. Feelings of anger can manifest in different ways, including impatience, revenge, and self-destructive behavior (Wikipedia).
Tonight’s tune is Rolling in the Deep by Adele: There’s a fire starting in my heart, Reaching a fever pitch and it’s bringing me out the dark. Finally, I can see you crystal clear, Go ahead and sell me out and I’ll lay your shit bare. See how I’ll leave with every piece of you, Don’t underestimate the things that I will do…
