145) Anger

Anger is fine as long as it does not control you.

Here is a list of anger possibly taking over you:

• You keep it bottled inside. A few years have passed, you suddenly snap.
• You take things too harshly and seriously. Everywhere you go, you are annoyed by people.
• ​​You go on swearing and cussing at a person, during an argument. You believe that person will stop. Instead, it gets worst.
• After an argument, you hold a grudge on that person. (You rub it in.) You are hoping that person will reach out to you for an apology. Instead, nothing really happens.
• Nothing is going your way. You are mad at everybody.
• Based on your life experience, you have trust issues. You always have negativity around people.
• You have done everything for that person. You expect kindness in return. Instead, that person does not care. You see that person as a villain now.
• You find out that somebody is talking behind your back. You are hurt. You go on criticizing that somebody. Then, it goes back and forth.
• You are concerned about somebody. You give that person advice. You realized that person never listens to you anyway.

​I have gone through this list of anger. It is good that I am aware of it. That way, I can neutralize my anger.

A good friend told me, "Just let it go." Also, traveling solo has given me a different perspective in life.

​Most importantly, acknowledge your anger, and be mindful of it. 

Remember, it is impossible to please everybody. Also, it is impossible to be liked by everybody.

You can either hate, or like me. That's fine. Go with what you want. It's your choice. It's your life.

I am at peace. I am focused on myself.
