How does anger ruin your life?

[Chives99]

Anger is classed as a negative emotion and anyone can say instantly that its  not  a pleasant emotion to feel, but they wouldnt't contiue to feel it if they didnt think the emotion had uses for their life. I feel if the individual became deeply conscious of how it ruins their life they would take steps to cease doing it. I can't put into words myself the devestating effects because i can't see all the things it effects.

Anger is normally caused by being blocked from achieving a goal. Its apparent purpose is to trigger action to remove barriers. When combined with bad interpretations of situations, stress and unconsciousness, the results can easily lead to very destructive outcomes, such as road rage.

The good news is that while anger can always arise, it cannot take over a conscious person. As it starts to arise, an observant person can choose whether or not to get involved. Somebody once used the analogy that the train will pull up to the station and open its doors, but you don't have to get on board.

An Eckhart Tolle fan once did a clever cartoon that illustrates this point also.

I  can see peoples anger even being expressed indirectly like making commments to get under my skin and I just think to myself you must not be happy with your life or something otherwise why the need for the attack

Anger = I’m not feeling. F that.  (Fear)

Sit and feel into it, rather than weave a story, or another into it, and it disappears every single time. Love never fails. 

“I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder, as I’m gettin older y’all people gets colder. Most of us only care about money makin, selfishness got us followin the wrong direction. Wrong information always shown by the media, negative images is the main criteria, infecting young minds faster than bacteria - kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema. What ever happened to the values of humanity? What ever happened to the fairness in equality? Instead of spreading glove we’re spreading animosity, lack of understanding leading us away from unity. That’s the reason why sometimes I’m feelin under! That’s the reason why sometimes I’m feelin down! It’s no wonder why sometimes I’m feelin under - gotta keep the faith alive till love is found. Where is the love?!”
