This at least should be a rule through the letter writing world: that no angry letter be posted till four and twenty hours will have elapsed since it was written.

Responding without reflecting; reacting instead of engaging; retaliating without processing. We do that stuff. And it doesn't serve us well.

Instead, what if we wrote those angry letters and then threw them away? Might we throw away the anger with them?

No. Because you should recycle that paper instead.
