Anger as Inspiration
My anger is reflected through my actions. My anger is my fuel for my commitment.
If I look at my anger as what should be inspiring and give me hope, then that's what my anger does to me. It is how I use my anger in ways to create productive futures, to create new ways of dealing with oppression and injustice, to create new techniques of resistance. It is not using this anger to reflect violently towards the other or to reflect violently within my own self.
What many times we ignore is that the violence that we see is only the violence that we see between militants, between the police and the army, the oppressors and the oppressed, the violent and the victims of violence, and we completely ignore how all of this violence also reflects within each of us as individuals, so this anger is there and I would tell you that if I did not have this anger, that I would not be human.
This anger is very important to be the inspiration that will make me engage in the right action and activity to eliminate this anger from happening in the future.
