Something that will make you the most powerful person in your life. It will only leave you powerless to the situation and cast you into a deep hole of self-loathing.Д«ut I know something you can do. When someone pisses you off, expressingВ anger will not prove your superiority. Yet we quickly find that anger isnвЂ™t worth much at all. And when someone pisses us off, we choose anger as our weapon in a desperate attempt to salvage our self-worth. So we choose to hold steadfast onto this notion that a display of anger instills power, fear, authority over circumstance and people. And when we arenвЂ™t in control, our gremlins feel threatened, as if someone or something is trying to take away ourВ power.Д«ut superiority is an illusion. Our gremlins want us to be in control of everything internal and external. See, our need for control is essentially a power struggle with the rest of the world. Since anger canвЂ™t *poof* the situation into what we want it to be, we turn toward empowerment. We need to know that our feelings matter and so we find other ways to satisfy the gremlins.

SinceВ we canвЂ™t control our circumstances or other people, we do whatever we can to satisfy our need for importance. And that means we canвЂ™t have temper tantrums andВ whine our way out of things. But weвЂ™re not children вЂ“ weвЂ™re grown ass people responsible for our own feelings and happiness. We get angry when things donвЂ™t go our way. AndВ you know very well that in order to control your anger you must let go of the need to control everything. And that means that you have gremlins inside you that wish to control your environment, including other people. Even if you donвЂ™t tag yourself as a control freak, you are a human. YouвЂ™re also angry because you couldnвЂ™t control the situation. And as you know, expectation is the number one killer of all relationships. YouвЂ™re angry because peopleВ didnвЂ™t do what you expected them to do. I love Buddha quotes.) Why youвЂ™re so angry With all the happenings in this world and all the negative emotion they stir, itвЂ™s easy to see why weвЂ™re all on edge, ready to snap at each other over spilt milk.Д«ut anger doesnвЂ™t make us feel good, and we know that being angry does nothing useful for ourselves or the rest of the world. It seems that anger is a staple of this American life and itвЂ™s reliably on the rise.Д®squire and NBC put out an interesting sociopolitical study and found that 68% of their audience reads or hears something on the news that makes them angry at least once per day.В They go on with percentages relative to race, religion, and political affiliation вЂ“ interesting, but to be taken with a grain of salt as always. If it makes you feel any better, youвЂ™re not the only person that feels angry. A punching bag would probably be more useful. I could give you some gentle Buddha quotes to ease your temperament, but I doubt theyвЂ™d help right now. And youвЂ™re trying really hard to not react, lose your cool, or overdramatize the situation.
