One of the most difficult things to say is I love you. One of the easiest to say is I hate you.
Anger is an easier emotion to show than compassion is to give. When we show we are caring and compassionate, we feel vulnerable. When we show we are upset and angry, we feel we are showing strength. We won’t be pushed around or walked over.
Love is intimate. Love is special. Supposedly, it is something we don’t just give willy-nilly to anyone. You have to earn it. You have to show it to receive it.
I love you.
Anger is like fireworks. It’s loud and sometimes unpredictable. Anyone within earshot or eyesight, can be caught in the crossfire. It is sometimes directed at someone who doesn’t deserve it. Once it is released, it cannot be pulled back.
One funny thing about both love and anger. They can easily become each other.
You have loved him for so long, but he just won’t do right, or return your love the same way. So you start to hate him, and become angry when you are around him. She gets on your nerves. You hate the way she chews gum. You think she dresses too flashy, and laughs too loud. But you think about her everyday. Hmm. Love?
Our emotions can rule us, and drive us to do and say things we regret later. The brain tries to provide some calm and rational perspective. But we don’t always listen until it’s too late. Then we all share one feeling. “I’m sorry.”
I’m sorry.
