I refuse to swallow the bullshit pill...

I was watching the Dr. Phil Show today and he said something that really pissed me off. He said that in the midst of anger we are at our weakest and that in anger we put on our victim hat because we feel something is being done to us...BULLSHIT! That made me so angry! And how ironic that a statement about anger would make me feel this way. But one of the biggest problems I encounter in life today is apathy. Every big company gives you half-assed service and acts like they are doing you a favor. Too many people see things that are wrong and do nothing about it...case in point, this whole body scan crap at every airport. I think healthy indignation and anger is what has been the catalyst for change! No, I don't think you should just run around being hostile and mad at the world, but anger does not always have to be negative. Anger can light a fire in your heart, driving you to achieve a better, more just world. I hate the way that we have become so "politically corrrect" that you can't even disagree with a policy or someone in authority without it becoming a need to call security. Ever been in a store or somewhere else that you are the patron and something is so blatantly wrong that you dare voice your feelings? You get..."Do we have a problem? Do we need to call security?" It is like a scene from that Adam Sandler movie Anger Management!! I just refuse to be a damn sheep...or a mindless zombie. How is recognizing that the world has become complacent and becoming angry about it make me a victim or powerless? Maybe Dr. Phil should proof-read his que cards.

All social movements begin because of anger, as O'Callaghan pointed out. Gandhi was angry with oppression, but led a non-violent movement. We use him as our "peaceful" exemplar, but his soul was anything but peaceful. I think this only goes to show that great transcension, our souls are but part of a larger soul. This is why it is divine to feel another's pain. Not because we put ourselves in their position but because in some way we are in their position. To avoid anger is to is not good it is in fact the highest of weaknesses. We should take all into our being and only then can we create and form it as we see fit.

Feed that flame Panterra.

Dr Phil would not be as popular and have a show if his opinions did not maintain the status quo. He does have some good advice from time to time but he is just an other tool. And yes anger can be constructive.

Here here sister! There's a huge difference between abusive behavior or victimization and healthy indignation, and voicing our concerns, or being enraged by injustice. How did anyone abolish slavery without someone first being pissed off about it? How did women gain validation in today's society without hundreds of enraged muzzled ladies backing the movement? Awesome post lady! :D
