Anger
Anger. Ever have to deal with Anger?
'sigh'. It seems like when you first start to acknowledge that anger is real, you actually find yourself more angry.
I'm not sure why. maybe cause I'd been in denial about being angry, and it's sorta refreshing to actually 'own it'. To 'vent alittle'.
But then the clean up. Find the trigger, what causes the anger?
Is it something I can control? if yes, do something about it prayerfully.
Find the source.
the Serenity Prayer helps in times like this:
"God Grant me the Serenity
To accept the things I cannot Change
The courage to change the things I can
and the Wisdom to know the difference."
St. Seraphim once said:
"Acquire the Peace of God and thousands around you will be Saved."
