DO YOU BELIEVE?

DO YOU BELIEVE THAT WE ARE HERE BECAUSE OF A MIGHTY GOD AND NOT BECAUSE OF A MUDDY GLOB? WE HAVE A GOD WHO IS ALL POWERFUL, ALL KNOWING, AND EVER PRESENT. A BOUNDARY IS SIMPLY A PROPERTY LINE.

ANGER USED "DEFENSIVELY"

THERE ARE WAYS TO USE ANGER DEFENSIVELY. USING ANGER TO DEFEND AND PROTECT MYSELF IS UNHEALTHY. IT CAN BECOME A METHOD OF RESPONSE TO WRONGLY COPE WITH PAIN. IT CAN BE USED TO DOMINATE OR CONTROL OTHERS.


ANGER CAUSES THE HEART TO HARDEN IF THE ANGER IS NOT RESOLVED. OR ONE CAN BECOME COMBATIVE OR DEFENSIVE. IT CAN ACT LIKE A DRUG . WHEN ONE BECOMES ANGRY, ONE DOES NOT HAVE TO FEEL THE PAIN THAT PROMPTED THE ANGER, BUT ONE WON'T FEEL ANY GOOD FEELINGS EITHER. TAKEN TO EXTREME, ANGER EMPOWERS ONE TO CHANGE THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT THREATENED ONE TO BEGIN WITH.
