I always get so much more done when I'm angry! =) I think it definitely motivates change when it's needed. Thanks for sharing your story. I think we always have to rediscover ourselves to help us grow and become better... even though it hurts sometimes. (personally I like avoiding it by watching tv, but whatever...)Jacquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13671012482490946160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22353866.post-34122405433830403302009-05-06T16:14:00.000-04:002009-05-06T16:14:00.000-04:00Anger has so many forms.

A part of a progression. I just can't dwell on the anger to the point that I don't move to the next step. <br /><br />With two of my 'deeper' experiences, I believe that I reached the real forgiveness stage, but because I can't 'completely' forget, ("forgive and forget") then I sometimes forget that that it's ok now and I find myself angry again at the original hurt - what I was <I>supposed</I> to have forgotten about after the forgiveness part - the pain comes back with it and I have to grab hold of the reins and remind myself of the steps. <br />I've gotten better at it - easier and quicker over time. No less complete than the first time and probably makes for good practice for future hurts, potentially from the same person. <br />Also, in some instances, not necessarily the same ones, I try to separate past 'hurts' from the person that caused them - in my mind- so that I don't associate them together so much. It gives them more of a clean slate than it would otherwise - further allowing me to forget and continue to feel that I forgave them. <br /><br />I think that English is sometimes a weak language. I bet Greek or Hebrew or some other ancient language would have had like 10 words for all the different kinds of "anger" ...and "forget". <br />:) Ya know what I mean!?!GGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00459353691088583010noreply@blogger.com
