“For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness ”
— Ralph Waldo Emerson

Simplified Meaning:
Getting angry might seem natural when things don't go our way, but it takes away time we could spend being happy. Picture your day like a pie chart; if you spend a lot of time mad about something, that's less time for joy and peace. Imagine you are upset about a traffic jam. While you’re fuming, you miss out on enjoying good music or a podcast, maybe even a pleasant chat with a friend who’s traveling with you. Holding onto anger isn't worth it because it steals away precious moments we can never get back. Instead, try taking deep breaths or thinking about something that makes you smile. By letting go of anger quickly, you make more room for happiness in your life.
