Now this is one of the strangest emotions for me. Probably because every other emotion has its predictability and this does not. You don’t know how you would react or how you are supposed to react. Probably the most attractive route which would sound to you is escapism. Just get out of that place which is annoying you or snub the person royally who is annoying you. The sensible side within you wags her finger smiling indulgently at your belligerent side. Na-ah , that is not how you handle things. The crux of the matter is how do you deal with it? I mean if it is repeatedly the same source which is bothering you then give that person a big telling off. But it’s those uncomfortable feelings within you which you have to deal with. Sometimes I feel some kind of a physical activity would do a world of good. Like dancing your ass off. Or I sometimes dreamily think of kick boxing , imagining the person’s face which you’re boxing. But we need to detox mentally because all said and done anger is toxic. Not good for your health. I feel that in such times this advice is universal , spend time with yourself , probably the only way to detox , because no other company better than your own. I believe in destiny , karma and a weird belief that things sort themselves out. Probably all the logical idiots will tell me dialogue and discussion are means to end any conflict. True. But sometimes we are not always fighting an Indo- pak war where the discussion over a conflict becomes more tedious and annoying than the supposed conflict itself. So at the end of the day I sit back with my chocolate bars and let go because a quote from one of my favourite books little women says ‘don’t let the sun go down with your anger’ and another quote from of my all time favourites ‘gone with the wind’ says “tomorrow is another day” . so I tell my fuming weary glaring soul…. Tomorrow is another day J
