apophenia has touched on an important issue here : namely the inadequacy of referencing
anger as a mechanism for problem solving : Buddhism teaches us that one must remove
desire as that is the cause of all human suffering and anger is symptomatic of this for it
can stem from a desire that is not forthcoming : to be free is to be without attachment
to anything or anyone including oneself yet very few of us if any at all actually achieve
it and even those who do only manage to after a long period of disengagement from
everything no doubt : I am now less angry now than I used to be and may be this is
due to my isolation from others or being in the autumn of my life but what ever : if
I could turn the clock back and live my life all over again it would be without anger

A MIND IS LIKE A PARACHUTE : IT DOES NOT WORK UNLESS IT IS OPEN
