February 15 - When I became angry, can I admit to it and state it as face without allowing it to build up and burst out in inappropriate ways? Pent-up anger, I've finally begun to learn, quickly shatters the peace of mind that's so critical to my ongoing recovery. When I become enraged and lose control, I unwittingly hand over control to the person, place, or thing with which I am enraged.
When I'm angry will I try to remember that I endangering myself? Will I "count to ten" by calling a friend in the GA Program and say the Serenity Prayer aloud?
Today I Pray - May I recognize angry feelings and let them out a little at a time, stating my anger as a fact, instead of allowing it to fester into rage and explode uncontrollably.
Today I Will Remember - Anger is. Rage need not be.
