I'm so glad someone else feels this way. I was raised with a very cheerful, optomistic and logical attitude, and when asked, "Aren't you angry?", the answer is always a calm and confident NO. I agree with you that it's a weak emotion. I believe that you and I jump see the big picture...in the scheme of things, anger is unwarranted, serves no purpose, will compound the issues, can be dangerous, and is unhealthy. I took a class on Stress Management, and a quote I liked is, In a crisis, you have two choices. You can go crazy or you can go peacefully. When there's someone in the left lane chugging along, instead of screaming for them to move, I go around (I even go so far as to create a reason they may be moving at a snail's pace...there's a crying infant in the back seat and they're on their way to the doctor, very concerned and distracted, so slow is their way of being gentle, cautious or whatever. Thanks for posting this. I'd love to meet you and all the other non-angry souls.
