Kind of a Hairy Topic!

Okay, so I’m shaving & I guess I got too close, but it caused an ingrown hair, and I hate it when that happens – I actually felt mad (for a second or two)!!  You know… I think anger is a lot like an ingrown hair.  Anger is, but one of the many mixed feelings associated with grief.  And of all those feelings, anger is probably the most dangerous – that’s if we don’t (appropriately) express it.  If we’re angry – I’m talking really mad – over a long period of time, and we’re not expressing that, then it’s like that ole strand of hair that just keeps on grownin… it literally gets under your skin!  And you know what happens then… that’s right… it gets red, it causes a bump, etc. – it’s ugly & it can even hurt – you gotta get it outta there.  Anger is the same way – if you don’t express it (appropriately of course), it’ll end up hurtin ya in the long run.  It’s a normal feeling we all have from time to time, especially as a part of grief.  Don’t let it get the best of ya:)
