It's so strange how our world doesn't allow negative emotions.. A few moments before seeing this, i was pondering anger, and how many friends I have that are on medication and are given bad strategies to manage anger. Some had parents that didn't allow emotions and pushed medications, even when the doctors didn't want to give them the medication for it, the parents would go find another doctor.

I walked away from the thought wondering about possibilities to explore anger and frustration responsibly. And was pondering Buddhism and how it's important to experience things instead of hiding them. Exploring those feelings with others involves a lot of trust, but then I also realized a reciprocal role, that people like being trusted, it's a form of acceptance. Especially when vulnerability is involved. That's a lot of responsibility to not take lightly, but I'm finding it rewarding in the strangest of ways.
