I find it annoying. Anger seems to be my dominant emotion except when I feel depression from the loss. Learning to accept and embrace these moments will help you develop the tenacity needed to heal from your loss. The reasons you’ll experience a constant flow of emotions when grieving are: You need time to process I should know enough about loss to realize that you never really stop missing someone-you just learn to live around the huge gaping hole of their absence.”

I love the old Groucho Marks quote, “ I wouldn’t want to belong to a club that would have me as a member,” but I like to rephrase that quote a bit for the good of my letting go process , He didn’t do it to himself, some arrogant fools decided THEY had the right to take life. Their like-minded kind are STILL deciding that. They did it in Manchester a week ago and that “triggered” a response in me that included grief & all the anger that goes with losing a loved one for a stupid reason. There is no way to get around, past, or without having grief in our lives. There is only our getting through grief that genuinely matters.The grave itself is but a covered bridge, Leading from light to light, through a brief darkness!” ~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’ Anger is a very complex emotion. It presents itself physically, emotionally, and psychologically. We are taught about anger in our families of origin. Often it is an emotion that is tolerated or stifled to various degrees. As children, we model what we observe and are taught how to self-regulate anger. It might range from slight annoyance to rage. Anger is a reaction to pain, loss of control, or a perceived threat or injustice to our self or someone we care about. One’s reaction will differ based on the perception of the threat. Our reaction can frighten us as well as others. How may we feel and express anger? Scars are a testament that I can love deeply and live deeply and be cut, or even gouged, and that I can heal and continue to live and continue to love. And the scar tissue is stronger than the original flesh ever was. Scars are a testament to life. Scars are only ugly to people who can't see. A decade ago I set out to write about compassion. In our increasingly connected world, I believed compassion was going to be very important if we wanted to preserve human creativity, health, and prosperity. So I decided to write about that. We accept that grief has come and gone, and it will come again, and we survive the sorrow and loss by knowing that love and life are always right in front of us.

Excessive drinking, spending, eating, and gambling (poor decisions) that suppresses angry feelings and can cause irreparable harm to yourself and your relationships. Any child can feel the loss of a mother or father but still not know how to deal with it emotionally.Our response to anger can be healthy or unhealthy and can manifest itself in many ways. Here are just a few examples. Heatlhy Only people who are capable of loving strongly can also suffer great sorrow, but this same necessity of loving serves to counteract their grief and heals them.” ~ Leo Tolstoy
