Lisa, this is so powerful and a needed invitation into the process of lament. I'll be sharing with the grief group I'm doing these days. So beautiful, so right on.

I really, really needed to read this. I’m learning that I’m prone to anger (Enneagram 1 here, also in the anger triad) and you’re so right by the time you see smoke it’s too late. I always thought because mine wasn’t an explosive anger, it was okay, I could ignore it because it’s not a “nice” emotion. I’ll be returning to this one over and over. Thanks.

Anger really does not hide. I'm glad my own work might help you!

I get angry at such little things and it always shocks me how quickly it can flare up. I appreciate your advice here! I often try to squash my anger down when all I feel like doing is throwing something. Prayer is always the best answer, isn't it? And maybe some exercise 😅 thanks for this!
