Life is about getting angry. Surviving the challenges of life, one needs to be angry at all times. Angry is the antibiotics that heal the inner rumblings of one’s emotional emptiness. It gives one steam and momentum. It draws energy and traction. It brings succor and massages the mind with the balm of tranquility.
Getting angry isn’t a choice for anyone that strives to live a good and happy life. It is a must. Avoid it, one does so at one’s peril.
Each time I meet people, regardless of who they are, their status, their vibes and accomplishments, if there is no tincture or tendencies of them getting Angry I score them “zero minus” in my assessment.
Many marriages have failed, failing and won’t stop failing if ANGRY disposition isn’t central. There are a lot ANGRY dispositions that can help, especially in sorting out situations which ordinarily would have been a log in the wheel of progress.
Imagine a marriage that is starved of “ANGRY” disposition. Toxicity becomes the fragrance that wheezes around.
Imagine a church with a Pastor or Priest with no inkling of being “ANGRY” or a relationship that has no traces of “ANGRY”? Better Imagined than experienced. Bad taste! Awful smells and acidic reactions become the driving force.
Get “ANGRY”! Look for those who are easily ANGRY (Attractively Natural, Genuinely Respectfully Yielding)
Imagine having a Wife, Husband, Pastor, Friends etc who are Angry, Attractively Natural in character, behaviour, morals and values, genuinely relating with no guile, respecting people’s space and emotions and yielding to things that only promote godliness, ethics and the greatest good for the greatest number of people.
What a perfect world! A sublime human relationship! Peace, love and harmonious living would be when “ANGRY” becomes the bedrock of all we do.
Imagine what Nigerians would be if our leaders were ANGRY set of people. Attractive to good governance, natural to issues of public interest without fakeness, genuinely implementing policies and distribution of positions, respecting human rights and constitutional provisions and yielding to the pathetic cries of the masses for better living.
Begone! Away from me, if you are not an A.N.G.R.Y person. Nigeria and Nigerians need both ANGRY leaders and followers.
NB: Words are flexible. If you doubt me, check the spelling and sound of the word “Witch” in Igbo language and see if there is a correlation of a word in spelling and pronounciation in other tribes though with different meaning. Words have no fixture in meaning. What they stand for is the meaning we give them.
Next time someone asks you if you are Angry, find out first which Angry they are talking about. One of bad and hurtful mood or one of being Attractively Natural, Genuinely Respectfully Yielding ( Angry)
I am an ANGRY jolly fellow! What about you?
