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.
