Anger, just like any other human emotion is neither a strength nor a weakness but depending on the way you handle your emotions it can either strenghten you or make you weak.
Personally I lash out on objects or myself when I am angry and I know that makes me weak.

@SW-User Does that mean you're defined by your emotions?

SW-User

@karysma No they are something I and people in general struggle with. I am defined by many things because no one can be defined by just one thing.

@SW-User I struggled with anger for many years. Anger defined me at one point in my life but I'm free from that now.

It's one thing that defines me now and it's love. Not the romantic kind of course 😅

@karysma I'm glad you are free from it.
Love is a beautiful thing to let yourself be defined by.
I do lack love in my life and have to fight my self hatred.

@SW-User I'm sorry about that. Self hate is no fun. I used to struggle with it myself and I realized the root of it is comparing yourself with other people. Once you look in the mirror and tell yourself you're beautiful just the way you are it'll be the beginning of acceptance which would bring happiness to your heart.

@karysma Thank you!
I hope I'll be able to experience happiness one day.

@SW-User I hope so too. You got to understand though that happiness is not a gift that comes in a package brought by somebody or something. It's already in you. All you got to do is work to unleash it. Begin with cutting off negative thoughts and people that make you feel inferior and replace them with thoughts and people that encourage you. Even when you talk to yourself do it with love. When you look in the mirror look at yourself with love.
