February 16 - What about "justifiable anger"? If somebody cheats us or acts toward us in an outrageous manner, don't we have the right to be furious? the hard learned experiences of countless others in the GA Program tell us that adventures in rage are usually extremely dangerous. So, while we must recognize anger enough to say "I am angry," we must not allow the build up of rage, however justifiable.
Can I accept the fact that, if I am to live, I have to be free of anger?
Today I Pray - Even though I go out of the way to skirt them, may I be aware that there always will be certain situations or certain people who will make me angry. When my anger doesn't seem justifiable - with arguable reason behind it - I may deny it, even to myself. May I recognize my anger, whether it is reasonable or not, before I bury it alive.
Today I Will Remember - It is all right to feel anger.
