Certainly anger can get in the way of some goals, especially as most people hate it. I suppose I look at things in the long view. We can't shut away emotions. We can temporarily, and then deal with consequences. So choosing to not spending your time on anger [i]if it is actually there[/i] is really the same as avoiding it. Of course, dwelling on it is a different matter. But really what I'm speaking of is being present with what is truly there, even if it isn't "nice". - Matthew Mon, 02 Feb 2009 15:32:39 +0100 http://www.polarisrising.com/acknowledging-hatred.html#comment-9 Interesting approach. I've always considered anger to be an unproductive emotion. Not the way I choose to spend my time. If I find myself approaching that zone, I immediately ask myself why should I be distracted in this manner. Everyone has to deal with it in the manner in which they deem best. - Reggie Greene / The Logistician Mon, 02 Feb 2009 10:38:11 +0100
