It’s never easy to compose yourself when your emotions are in turbulence. Anger and pain is the worst combination of them all. But let’s not talk about the negatives, I’m here to tell you what you already know. Here’s the reminder of things you should focus on when you’re going through anger and pain…

Don’t say “Why me?”, ask yourself “what’s the lesson I’m suppose to learn?”.
One of my night time ritual is to do a sleep meditation. In one of the video title “letting go and surrender” by Jason Stephenson mentions that in an old Celtic legend that says ‘just before each person is born, they’re allowed to choose all the hardship they will experience in their life time. Everyone selects the challenges that they will be able to overcome, the situations and conditions that will push them to learn and grow… What if your tough situation is selected because someone or something knew you could not fail them. How would you feel?”*

Draw that anger into a creative process.

Artists creates their best work when they are in misery. If you are a writer, write the hell out of it. If you are a painter, paint even more. Keep yourself busy in your creativity and create something positive out of it. That will be a reward to yourself!

In the process, find a way to forgive even if it might be the hardest thing to do.
Firstly, forgive yourself. Forgiveness doesn’t mean that things will go back to normal. Forgiveness is letting go of the anger for our own peace and sanity. It has less to do with the other person and more for your own sake. The best way to forget is to walk away from the situation and stop thinking about it. Like an open wound, the more to touch it the slower it will heal. Let it heal on its own until you are strong enough to deal with it head on.

Lastly, pray on it.
Whatever religion or belief you have, there’s a greater power out there that is like your guardian angel. Let it guide you in times of darkness. Find people who can share that light with you and help you to the other side. We are independent people but we are emotionally dependent upon others. Let the people who love you help you. It’s a gift to them and to you.
