Anger by Niki Collins-Queen Friday, May 21, 2004 Rated "G" by the Author. Share Print Save Become a Fan The more anger we unload The less we explode

Anger is natural It shows up the hurt How much to take Where to draw the line Anger is power For us to protect Express it constructively Discuss be matter of fact No blame, no shame, or attack Anger held in will explode Anger against ourselves is a load Depression and thoughts of suicide We are taught be slow to anger Forgive, turn the other check Watch for dishonesty When anger we do hide It surfaces another time Honesty is best Proper expression does the rest Anger is a gift It should last only fifteen seconds If there is no shift It means there is repression Look for the source Talk, write, and exercise When anger runs its course There is no remorse The more anger we unload The less we explode Honest, happy, lighter we feel With strength to yield Our love becomes the shield

I don't understand. This offering of wisdom and insight has been posted here for 3 1/2 years, yet no one has seen fit to leave even one review or comment? What's the matter with my fellow writers/readers? If they want a comment or review of their material from us, they better do their part. This neglect makes me mad as hell! One, 2, 3, 4, 5... Okay. I'm under control, now. From one who has been married for 57 years and helped raise four children, let me express how especially important one word is: "Forgive." Solid, straight-forward advice, Niki. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience. Richard
