Emotions are what they are. They are what they are for a reason, usually.
We aren’t robots. We aren’t Vulcans from Star Trek. Honest emotion is normal, natural, and they’re going to happen, even uncomfortable ones like sadness, fear, and anger.
Physical pain is the body’s way of telling us something is wrong. It might be something trivial like an ice cream headache or might be life threatening like a heart attack.
Anger is one of life’s way of telling us something is wrong. It might be as small flare of temper at a little inconvenience or it may be righteous anger at true injustice. Honest emotion is something to experience and deal with.
There is no harm in that.
But there is harm when anger is preserved and propagated. Anger on the offense is where bad things happen.
Feel angry? If it is a small ego bruise, in the words of Princess Elsa – let it go.
James Marcus Bach, author of Secrets of a Buccaneer Scholar once said on social media that “people get defensive because they have something to defend.” Anger can be defensive, too. Our righteous anger can show us where we are being harmed. It shows us where the problem exists so we can start solving it.
