      My problem with Rhoberta's psychology when she points to "understanding" the roots of anger/rage as a route to healing is that it cannot produce freedom from your bondage. (I know this because I knew the emotional and spiritual roots of my rage for the full 25 years that I struggled with my it and that understanding didn't help me one bit.

    Anger is one of the most powerful emotions and the most challenging one to manage for most people. Some of us can't "manage" it ...at all. At best, some of us can ONLY moderate our reaction to our amygdala's response to our perception of a violation of our so-called rights. That's why Essential #1 is so crucial.

We're NOT perfect ...just saved as someone said.)

      The Greek text of the Christian Bible uses many words besides patience for this gift including "forbearance" and "long-suffering". R-E-A-L "patience" (Resilient-Energy-supplying-Awesome-Life-enhancing) is a Spiritual Gift from God Holy Spirit (http://diigo.com/0m0c1). It is present in every Jesus-Follower because the living God dwells in us ...in Christ! So opt already and don't rely on your won strength!

Rather than draining yourself and creating negative energy, you can increase your energy and resilience. Sincere patience means approaching situations with a positive attitude, care, understanding and genuine allowance.
