When you study psychology, you sometimes think of a master of psychology as a master of managing one's mind. The image that comes to mind is that of a saint who is always smiling. An image of someone who calms anger and maintains inner peace.

Anger is a signal
AuthorSei Honda (Narukin/Narukin)、Twitter・Facebook)teethAnger is a "signal that something must change."Let's say you're angry. You're annoyed. What is that?I get angry because there are things I don't like.It is bubbling up.Something deep within your body is sending you an important message: "Change the things you don't like!"That's right.

More than anything, isn't it more inspiring to experience the joy of navigating this world without easy answers, struggling and grappling with various challenges, and figuring things out through trial and error? Am I the only one who wants to experience all of it, including anger and sadness?
