********************************************************************
"Anger as soon as fed is dead. 'Tis starving makes it fat."
-- Emily Dickenson
********************************************************************
We get angry when we feel no one really "hears" us. We get angry
when we are passed over for promotions. We get angry when our
contributions are not recognized and affirmed. Feeling angry is
normal. Anger is harmful when it is "bottled up" or "starved."
When we hold it in we tend to explode at the most inopportune
time. Sometimes we have had to apologize for an outburst when the
catalyst for the outburst had no relation to the real reason we were
angry. Anger is not our enemy -- it lets us know when something is
wrong. Anger is not the problem. How we express it, is.
