If I could go back to my younger self and tell me that “Anger isn’t the real issue, here’s what is going on…” I would tell him this…
I have always struggled with anger. Let me be more specific, anger comes easy for me. The struggle is to not act out in a bad way because of it.
As I now see similiar tendencies in my own kids, I reflect back on my own childhood and ask what could I have done differently so that maybe things go better for them.
