Angry Posts?
I've been writing blog entries, getting them polished and ready to post.
Then I read through them. I don't want to post them anymore.
The posts I wrote are angry. The voice in those letters is grouchy, complaining. Blaming. Bitter.
I don't want to be that person. Not for the whole world, and certainly not for my family.
Yes, of course there are circumstances that induce anger and frustration. The problem I am seeing is that I didn't let it go, or take care of it. I must have kept it stored away long enough to write several angry pieces.
There will be times when angry pieces are appropriate, but these were written with a bitter attitude. Bitterness that inspires a meanness in my voice. Gross.
I want to take the idea that began each written piece and rewrite in a way that resolves the anger.
When there isn't a resolve for the circumstance, there can still be a resolve in my attitude, and sometimes anger is still the outcome - as long as it isn't bitter.
