what is your opinion about anger?

Anger is when the dark side of you comes out for a good or bad reason. I think the good thing is don't let the anger takes control of you but you have to control it. Nowdays anger is being a common emotion because people isn't satisfied.

This is a great post! It is not that the emotion is necessarily wrong, it is what we do with it. We have a choice on how we handle anger. If you are familiar with the Star Wars series you'll understand the relation between Anakin and his anger. He was always doing things irrationally because of his anger, and that eventually led him to the dark side. However, it was also noted that anger comes from fear, so to fully understand anger we must understand what we are afraid of. This then relates to the biology of what is occuring in the brain. When we were first early humans we didn't have fully developed gray matter, we had our basic core instincts that reacted or responded to our need to fight or flight. This kept us safe from large creatures, etc. Today, we have an advanced gray matter that does our logical thinking for us and it is connected to our base instincts by our amigdula. Our amigdula regulates our responses so that we're not flying or fighting all of the time. The term "amigdula hijack" refers to those times when our base insticts overide our amigdula causing us to react in a fight or flight manner. For example, you are driving down the road and someone cuts you off. You in return give them the universal code for you being upset. That would be an amigdula hijacking. It's not having the emotion that is bad, it is what we do with it. The best thing to do is become in touch with your emotions, and learn how to respond rather then react to everything your emotions dictate. Namaste-Anora

Anger and Love are the strongest of emotions, then depression and joy. I think that we can learn to tone it down to a level that can be handled or control if we are self aware to catch ourselves headed to a dangerous form of anger. Some anger can be good. You can use it to protect those you love, you can protect yourself, you can use it to get something done. But the opposite is true too. Balance in your emotions takes practice and time but it is possible and necessary.
