ANGER:



One of the goals in recovery is to be free of
resentment and anger. Yes it's okay to feel angry,
we agree. Well, maybe .......

Anger is a powerful and sometimes frightening
emotion. It's also a beneficial one if it's not
allowed to harden into resentment or used as a
battering ram to punish or abuse people.

Anger is a warning signal. It points to problems.
Sometimes, it signals problems we need to
resolve. Sometimes, it points to boundaries we
need to set. Sometimes, it's the final burst of
energy before letting go, or before acceptance,
settles in.

And, sometimes, anger just is. It doesn't have
to be justified. It usually can't be confined to a
tidy package. And it need not cause us to stifle
ourselves or our energy.

We can shamelessly feel all our feelings,
including anger, and still take responsibility for
our behaviors. One day at a time.
