A Love Letter To Anger...

Thank you anger, without you I’d be a crumpled, disgruntled, bitter mess, sobbing endlessly on my bathroom floor.

Thank you, anger, for showing me what I need by first of all screaming about what I don’t want.

Thank you for helping me clarify my vision for the world, by first letting me feel what I’m not okay with.

Thank you for teaching me boundaries and giving me the courage to set and hold them like a MF warrior.

I’m sorry you have been slandered. The mistruths spoken about you especially to women, minorities…the oppressed. We’ve been told that it’s not okay to feel you or hear your messages - whether they’re whispers or roars. So many have been shamed into disconnecting from you, anger, to keep them disempowered.

I believe everyone is right to feel you. That you hold the key to unlocking freedom and making healthy change in this world.

I’m sorry, anger, for the violence in our world because of those who don’t know how to wield or direct your intensity. They don’t know the benefit of feeling your fire, receiving your wisdom and expressing it in a healthy, loving and passionate way.

I’m sorry, anger, that you have such a bad reputation in this world, especially with those ‘spiritual’ ones. They’re stuck in the ‘love and light’ polarity and are yet to kiss your power. The ones who will reply to this letter - or silently believe - how wrong and unspiritual I am for even dare to encourage your existence.

Thank you, anger, for reconnecting me to my power. For showing me the way forward when I was lost and had given up hope.

Thank you for keeping me on track and pulling me back whenever I try to sink into invisible submission. For showing me how strong and powerful I truly am.

Thank you for being the protector of my precious heart. For ensuring those who would abuse my heart are kept far away. Your ferocity allows my heart to remain gentle.

Thank you for consistently bringing me back to my centre and showing me where I’ve been out of balance.

Thank you, anger, for being my guide and a friend. Thank you for always having my back.

I love you,
Jennifer
