I need to re-read your post, Freya, too much information to be absorbed in just one reading. Thank you for introducing to us Jane Anger. Your words about anger brought to mind David Whyte and his book 'Consolations' - a truly amazing book. He writes: "Stripped of physical imprisonment and violent reaction, anger is the purest form of care, the internal living flame of anger always illuminates what we belong to, what we wish to protect and what we are willing to hazard ourselves for."
Thank you Fotini--for reading and for the reminder of that gorgeous book by David Whyte. I read it throughout a year not long ago and always found something worthwhile-and I love that he wrote of anger as care as well. So now I get to return to it and re-read and make sure it's always near by.
