Unlike the thing the litany of gendlin addresses, anger is sometimes warranted. I think this calls for a different approach.
Anger is for punishing violations of moral codes. Did the subject of my anger really know my code?
We live in a big world. There are many different moral codes trying to coexist. I don't know every code. Some of them don't have names or signifiers. Was the subject of my anger following their own code?
If different codes conflict, that calls for a very sophisticated response.
The map is not the territory,
the word is not the thing.
My anger is not the trigger,
triggers do not become more or less important
as I feel anger wax and wane.
Emotions are motivation,
they're supposed to get me to do the right thing.
Defuse from my frustration,
breathe and wait for clarity calm will bring.
