Why do people succumb to anger?


thoughts

It feels so easy to slip into its grasp. But at the same time, from a distance, it looks quite stupid. Aren't we overreacting? What's the point of hitting one another, yelling at one another, going to war with one another? Yet when are up close, immersed in anger, we feel nothing but blissful rage, if that makes sense. Sweet revenge empowers us. Makes us feel as if we are at the top of the world. Maybe it is a survival mechanism. But I sure wish it weren't.
Silly little me

A year was not so long ago,
nor was two, nor three, nor four.
Yet browsing over this little site
has taught me a lot more
about me, myself, and my dreams.
Fulfilled, deferred, and existing.
Woe is me, I did not understand
myself until now.
Irony in its own right,
for in hindsight everything is clear.
Especially in the wee hours of the morn.
