Alchemy of Anger

Throughout life, I learn to quell anger, to take a step back, maybe a breath or two, to calm the breath and mind, and re-evaluate situations.

Doing this to ad maxim, leads me to have clarity of thought.

However, I realize this leads me to have a sort of disassociation and observer outlook on things. Less emotional and more neutral or flat. I often times see myself becoming more machine like and subjectively logic based from a limited rational point of view.

I also now recognize more and more that you can use anger.

I think the lesson here is to learn how to rid yourself of anger, to a level of discomfort that leads to action and change.

Because either your state of being changes or the circumstances change, if nothing changes, then nothing changes.

So the injustice and discomfort can lead you to a passionate fervor of change.

Too much anger, and you might have an uncontrolled fire, rage, and wrath. Resulting in bad judgement calls and short sighted action.

Too little anger, and you might be comfortable in letting things slide by, not changing yourself, your inner state, and not changing your outer reality as well.

The right amount of anger can cultivate a passion, a sort of fervor for change, an impetus for motion. There is a middle path to all of this. The Golden Balance.

I feel the need to express these thoughts and musings, due to my current state of feeling towards some minor negligible injustices. It seems a tiny pebble was on my path and it altered my course more than a boulder would. So I’m sharing my musings for recompence to the Universe.

Epilogue,

Long lulls of inactivity does not imply inactivity else where. Life is lived, and here is wrote.

Lest not we forget, Words Mean Things.
