Anger is much easier to access for most people, than fear or hurt. THINGS I HAVE LEARNED FROM MAC!

Our wings are not tired.
Eide Shoma Mobarak! One more question, does this always coincide with the first day of Spring? (Actually I Googled and yes) I was unaware of this. I need to send greetings to my local Persian friend.
I'm sitting with tommyrot, anger makes me extremely uncomfortable. I have to remove myself from the vicinity. It seems to get worse as I age.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Me too. Certainly there are better and worse ways to deal with it/express it, but it makes me uneasy regardless. Childhood trauma, hello, old not-friend.
Spring, where is spring. It'll be 70 degrees on Saturday, and then... we're supposed to get more fracking snow next week.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Fred Phelps died. There's a little less hate in the world today.

Yeppers. I think it is the perfect time for New Years. Kinda driving me nuts that my house is in such disarray when it should be Spring Cleaning clean.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I feared my father's anger when I was growing up. He'd get angry at me when I lost my temper or cried, so I learned not to do those things. To this days I have a hard time crying and dealing with my anger.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I think that anger often is actually unexpressed hurt. So we say "I'm so angry..." when we mean "I'm really hurt that I've been disregarded..."
Anger is much easier to access for most people, than fear or hurt.
I agree with both these statements too.
And wow, from anger to learning that Fred Phelps is dead. I wonder what that means for the Westboro Baptist Church. Do they fold up shop now? Or are there enough family members around who feel the need to carry on his "work" now that he's gone?

He was ex-communicated from the church this past year. It will keep going.
