Anger is a terrible emotion, it eats you alive. The harder you endevour to submerge it, sink it to the bottom of your gut, the more it grows, the harder to control. I has many causes, yet I feel it is fear based. Somewhere in the span of a life time someone took away your control, leaving you vunerable. The result is an individual who strives to control everything, gets agitated, frustrated and lost when that is not possible. This gives rise to fear, and fear gives birth to anger.

I blow up (on the inside) and rant to myself until I’ve cooled off a bit. Then, I try to look at the whole thing more rationally. If I say anything about being angry it’s usually in the form of sarcastic humor intended to make you laugh as well as understand.

I rant -use a whole lot of sarcasm initially and then generally launch into a good bit of self-deprecating humor to tone down the rough edges still left behind.

I think this was written expressly for me. I was in the middle of a bit of a rant about traditional church education and vbs and why I hate it so. Time to step away from the computer, rehash, and start over in a more gentle way.
