Your Anger is a Gift

I've been working very hard on managing my anger.

It's hard to be positive and let stuff go.  I don't know how to do it very well.

I tend to brood and dwell.

I don't care for it any more.  It's exhausting.

I've been very, very aggravated at work lately, not with the people, because I like my co-workers, but with some other issues that exacerbate my dismay at not being able to find a job and feeling like my career has always been and will always be a source of anxiety and despair.

I try and focus on things in a more positive light:

• This is the universe trying to show me that I need to stop trying to please people in situations I don't care about
• This is the universe trying to tell me to do what I really, really want to do with my life
• This is the universe doing something that I can't understand right now, but that will ultimately be to my benefit

Or it may just be a bunch of shit.  I don't know.

But I am trying to be calm and accepting and let things go and happen as they must.

I am the motherfucking Ghandi of acceptance.
