"It's good to have a job... it's good to have a job...."

dixie · 06-04-2011, 05:31 AM

When I feel angry, I seem to have two ways of dealing with it. I either hold it in and say nothing or I let it out in accusing, venting, nonproductive ways. When I do this, I rupture perfectly good relationships. It is fair for me to register disgruntled feelings when appropriate but that's all I need to do. When I can't hold back from getting into an argument using blame and accusation, I create a mess. When something goes wrong, feeling angry is normal. I need to give myself a few minutes to feel the anger before I act out the feeling, rather than immediately dumping it on someone else. When I can give myself permission to feel my own anger without fearing it will devour me, I can own it as mine and decide what to do with it next.

It is okay to feel anger.
It is okay to let anger go.

Vitality shows in not only the ability to persist but the ability to start over.

It is to a man's honor to avoid strife, but every fool is quick to quarrel.

when digging your own grave you should first consider the size of shovel you will chose to both dig it and cover it up
