Anger
Anger is an emotion that immediately stupefies a person. Anger can make a person arrogant, and those without self-regulation can be driven insane by their inability to control their emotions. Anger causes the individual to be fueled by toxic energy that psychopathically drives them to devour themselves like a self-cannibalizing snake.
Anger as motivation is shortsighted, as anger pollutes the mind and body with negative energy. It wears out the soul, creating cycles of anger that leave its second cousin, toxic energy, as fuel. A dark cloud that harbors suspicion, jealousy, shame, guilt, anxiety, and depression. None of which are positive emotions, further fueling the toxic cycle.
So when you feel anger, address it right then and there. Reflect on its cause: what is the underlying emotion? What is the anger masking, reflecting on the root cause of the anger’s source? Are you sad, lonely, hurt? Then address that emotion and its source. Then the anger monster, and it will deflate the ugly little brat.
The short and sweet of it today is that anger is an ugly monster that is often masking another emotion. One that you may not feel safe to share or know how to articulate and share. When anger knocks at your door, pause, reflect, dissect it, and work through it. Once you can do this, no one can manipulate and control you, and you will not eventually self-destruct.
