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.
