Anger

is an emotion that I take too personally. It happened to me last night over cake. hmmm I guess I took the 4 year old approach and took myself and the cake home. If they don't want to play with me, I don't want to play with them...but that's not true. I want to play. I want to be liked. I want to be a good person. I want to get along well with others. So why do I feel so hurt when it doesn't happen like I think it should? Is that one of my rules I think I must succeed at or should it just be a goal and try harder next time? I've been using the concept of asking which is the wise choice instead it has to be one way or the other and the other is always worse. It's just seems I set myself up for failure....going insane trying to do the same thing over and over and expect a different outcome. When I get angry, I keep it too myself and it turns into I did something wrong because I feel this way.
