Anger
February 28, 2010
Why does getting angry feel so good? Ok, not actually getting angry, but expressing anger. It might be because I am a Taurus. Maybe I was just born to derive pleasure from blowing up. But I am on a spiritual path! I’m supposed to revel in the ecstasies found in deep meditation. Not in the super-human, tv-hurling strength and energy a good fit provides. These are two diametrically opposed types of pleasure, and sometimes I feel that I am two different people, the real me, and the ego-me. It’s a little obvious which me enjoys going on a rampage, and which me enjoys quiet contact with the Divine. But which me enjoys the run in the woods and other pleasures that are both good for the soul and good for the body? And does my ego-me try to trick the observer-me into thinking that she is the real-me? Yes she does. I found this out when I tried to fire her the other day.
