Anger and it’s fickle ways..
Anger grows in us but it also passes by like the wind. The formal definition for anger is a strong feeling of annoyance, displeasure and/or hostility, but you can also choose to see it as a fiery passion inciting in you, whether it be yelling and honking at the driver next you, whether it be fighting with your loved ones even simply coming home to that meal you were waiting for, which is now gone. Although anger is already programmed into our minds and emotions, i do not believe it is something healthy to indulge in, it isn’t a piece of chocolate, it isn’t the lovely sugary rainbow stripes against our taste buds, it’s something twisted in it’s own way. It’s said anger is caused by deep sadness and fear, i guess we all learn how to conceal our feelings, strange right? how we could want to bury our feelings not indulge and grow from them. I am at fault, i am angry with the world some days, i wonder how i got myself in this situation.. i then realize i didn’t, the universe put me into this situation, perhaps the universe knows i’m ready for each battle. Some days i wake up and can feel every hint of love for living in my body, i can feel the trees smiling at me, i feel the sun shining it’s energy on me. I’m still working on me, on not letting the anger overshadow, preventing it from taking me into the eye of the storm. Feelings are fickle, meaning they constantly change, that anger you feel will disperse, that sadness won’t cling on forever, in reality…happiness even invites itself to walk away. That’s the thing about life though, to understand that every feeling get’s it’s moment of importance, that although the happiness doesn’t always last, it’ll ignite in you once more, shouldn’t we all look forward to that? it leaves my mind at peace.
“ I really believe that all of us have a lot of darkness in our souls. Anger, rage, fear, sadness. I don’t think that’s only reserved for people who have horrible upbringings. I think it really exists and is part of the human condition. I think in the course of your life you figure out ways to deal with that.” - Kevin Bacon.
