Get angry 😤

After a six-month hiatus, I’m back in The Artist’s Way. And my god, it feels like coming home.

Today’s chapter cracked open the topic of anger. Not as something to fear or shame, but something to listen to.

“Anger shows us what our boundaries are. Anger shows us where we want to go.”

The trouble is, we often get mad at ourselves for being angry. But anger, when listened to, is a messenger. A bright flare showing us what matters most.

For instance, imagine feeling anger when you see a book that mirrors an idea you dreamed up years ago. That anger isn’t there to punish you. It’s urging you to stop waiting and start bringing your own brilliant ideas to life.

Remember: “Sloth, apathy, and despair are the enemy. Anger is not. Anger is our friend. Not a nice friend. But a very, very loyal friend.”

Happy journaling,

Kelsey
