Anger....and open-heart surgery

So, today as I was taking my lunch-time walk, I was seething with anger over the way my "boyfriend" has treated me.  Seething.....could feel the rage building up inside.  Have been struggling with this for a really long time, I think.  It grows and grows because I cannot process it.  I only push it aside, thereby feeding it.

I imagined opening my chest with my hands and poking a hole in my heart to let the hatred and anger out.   And I could actually feel a release.....it lasted until my very next thought of "how dare he".  LOL.

But, it worked for awhile.  And so I will continue to visualize the anger pouring out of me, staining the ground around me, soaking into the core of the Earth where it will be absorbed into the fire, and, therefore, gone forever.

  2. I did it! I am reminded of a scene from Joe Versus the Volcano (Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks). They are being pursued by angry natives on a remote island. They are climbing up a volcano, and Meg says: Nobody knows anything, Joe. We'll just jump and we'll see. So they jump into the volcano, it erupts and spews them back into the ocean (where am inflatable boat magically appears), and they are saved from the natives! So, sometimes, you just have to jump and see!
