On Anger

by Lemmonex on May 10, 2011

I am angry. Angry with a capital A about what this friend said.

But I am also a rational person and I know it isn’t fair.

This friend’s comment was thoughtless and insensitive and cut me to the quick.

It made me cry for the first time in a long time.

But she didn’t mean it. She is a well meaning and good and kind person.

She is a target. She is the person I point my anger towards.

And while I know it is wrong, I know I should let it go…I can’t.

I cling to it. She is a scapegoat.

She is all I have. I can’t forgive her because, if I do, I begin to face it all.

I am not ready.

This is why it’s nice to have friends who you can vent at… :-\

*Hugs* and alcohol.

If I forgive her, I have to face it. Yep. Pain. And for $180 an hour, I’m finally figuring out how to do that. Be well.

Rational and emotional don’t always get along.

If you need to be angry, be angry.

Happy to serve a need.
