Really, I’m not.
In fact, I’m somewhere around the intersection of content, excited, happy, and optimistic (change can be a REALLY GOOD THING sometimes!). And yes, this is still Bri-man’s Reflections you’re reading.
I found a quote that I wanted to document, as I’m 110% sure I’ll reference it sometime in the future. Again, I’m not upset, so please no emails asking me what’s going on now.
…the more you love someone, the more able they are to piss you off. So be aware: Anger and intense emotion are normal when you truly love and care.
even more in the extended entry:
1. Remember that anger and love are two sides of the same coin.
Anger and tears, anger and tears
Is that all that’s left of us after loving all these years
As slowly as love grows how soon it disappears
In a house full of anger and a heart full of tears
Remember, true strength is being able to work through the anger rather than letting the anger work through you.
2. Before you lash out, look within
When you’re struggling with anger, it’s common to blame others for every little thing. A true sign of strength is taking responsibility for yourself.
If I had a dime for half the things I did that didn’t make no sense at all
I’d be living a little higher on the hog
If only I’d have known
That later on down the road
I’d look back and not like what I see
I’d have changed a lot of things
Startin’ with me
3. Practice feeling without reacting
… when you are in challenging situations, you make the best decisions in even the worst of situations if you just breathe and relax. (Sound like anything I learned with my anxiety problems?)
