Wellll...I got angry and the rest of the household knew it. Later on, my 7 year old chastised me saying that I shouldn't say I'm "angry," I should say I'm "disappointed." I looked Young Mr. dead in the eye and said, "Son, I was angry. It's okay to be angry about some things."<BR/><BR/>Disappointment can lead to apathy. Rage can lead to violence. Anger can lead to change. <BR/><BR/>Spring in Missouri can lead to allergy hell.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-68625788174707209582008-04-14T15:11:00.000-05:002008-04-14T15:11:00.000-05:00I'm currently going through my first spring in eas...I'm currently going through my first spring in eastern KS, so I feel you. Right now it feels like somebody took my eyeballs out while I was asleep, scuffed them up some, then stuck 'em back in. Good times. I want to try the local honey thing, too, but haven't yet figured out where to find local honey in Suburbia. *sigh*<BR/><BR/>Anyway, though, I like what you had to say about anger, in particular. Sometimes I think that suppressing anger can be more destructive, in the long run at least, than rage.LQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07077145971116017238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-8615892190959951892008-04-14T14:05:00.000-05:002008-04-14T14:05:00.000-05:00Don't give up on the local honey trick!

Too bad, I was hoping that would be the silver bullet to help us through the spring season...that's one less thing on the specialized shopping list.

So far Michelle Malkin has gone on a crusade against the black church, for what she calls a cesspool of hate. Bill O'reilly has threatened that if black poeple don't shape up, white people won't deal with us anymore. National Review Online and Newsmax mutualy think black people have nothing to complain about ever; and the distinguished Pat Buchannan claims that black folk ought to kiss the ground his white forefathers walked on for bringing our heathen butts to this annointed land.<BR/><BR/>I for one am rejoicing at all of this, as I think all people should. As outrageous as these comments are I appreciate knowing exactly what these people really think about black folk. <BR/><BR/>Black people, especially black people, need to just stand back and watch this spectacle. After this year is over with there needs to be some serious consideration about where we need to go to improve ourselves and humanity at large. <BR/><BR/>I dare say that the democrat/republican dichotomy aint going to work for us.<BR/><BR/>I don't know what a bitch thinks about this but I figured I'd let my anger be known.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
