Sneaking Up On Anger Before It Sneaks Up On Us


Anger is often a sneaky thing; we aren't aware of it until it springs up within a presenting injustice. But the trouble is anger may take us over the top and our argument is quickly shot down in an abuse of the other person.

Somehow we have to become aware of the issues generating feelings of frustration, annoyance, betrayal and disappointment before anger becomes manifest.

Anger can be thought of as a response to us lying to ourselves.

If we try to pretend life is all okay when it isn't, that sadness within will insist on being heard some way. We need to be honest.


Only when we are honest - as we take honesty into our devotional time each day - on the train, bus, or in the car, if need be - will we have enough awareness to think on a solution.

We can only manage our anger if we are being proactive in thinking on a solution. As we think more and more consciously, our unconscious thinking is engaged more and more. When we have our unconscious (or subconscious) minds working on something, we have more of a chance of developing a creative solution to innovate.

The truth is there are many, many possibilities for solutions. We just haven't thought them up yet.
