Anger - Good or Bad

Anger is a response to something happening which you do not like, Your body and mind does not agree to.

It is a defense mechanism to deal with things , to keep you out of danger.

For example, if you are in a situation which you cannot control, like a loss, a loss so huge that leaves you numb. You are not able to move forward even an inch. But then a thought comes, this world is so unfair, everyone is so selfish and unfair, the god is no good.

You feel an adrenaline rush, and you can move forward.

In current life I have, anger is working for me, it is keeping me alive, yes its not love (it is there love of my son and my family) but its anger, what pulls me out of bouts of sadness, I find myself in so frequently.

When I am in depths of sadness, and remorse on what should have been, what could have been and why what happened was not at all fair and what I missed and I am missing the physicality of my mom, I think on what my definition of right would be and what I wish should happen. These are angry thoughts and my mood shifts.

Both are bad, but for me for now, anger is working to keep me afloat.
