Anger is an unhealthy emotion. So we want to control it. However, when it arrives, it arrives in a wave sweeping all our resolutions away.
No matter how much you resist it, anger wins each time.
The key is in not resisting it.
Yes, you read that right. Don’t resist anger. Rather spend time with it.
“Why do I feel what I feel?
Which need of mine is unmet?
Why am I letting my denial take over where I could have an open mind rather than being a sceptic?”
As we answer these questions honestly, there would be no need to resist anger.
Because then it won’t arise in the first place.
The extreme emotions are usually a result of not spending time consistently with our own selves.
