One of the biggest barriers to peace is anger, because you aren't even thinking about peace. You are blind.
Today has been full of frustrations, both my own fault, and by others. Frustration means not being able to see the good, so my day has been increasingly full of negativity. At several times that has just turned into blind anger.
Now I wouldn't be able to write this, mind you, if I was really that angry at the time, but its been so constant, it's like I am a boiling water balloon. Little pressure and I will explode, and hurt everything in my path. It's taken all I have not to explode on people for tiny things. The negative body effects are all there: the adrenaline and cortisol, the churning stomach acid, the high blood pressure and all the rest of the nasty things that happen to your body when you are angry.
These days happen, thankfully rarely. Time to pray and ask for peace before I spread the bad instead of the good.
Peace come soon so that I don't hurt someone or myself.
