to receiving whatever life throws at us -
with Gratitude. Have NO Expectations of life.

Life is a continuity always and always.

Repressed anger still is anger, it just isn't expressed.
If you truly have no anger, you are blessed and joyful.

Go ahead, express your anger briefly,
pound pillows, scream, curse.
Then take a deep breath, and get over it.
