I keep music at hand also....I have found that over the years, my anger fades about my childhood, and I realize that it really is a relatively short period of our lives.....the closer I grow to Christ....the less angry I feel.....I've made healthy boundries for those who drag me down or make me angry and found that counting blessings helps also. I throw myself into places and people that I trust to hold me accountable it trial times......and there always will be those.
