    About this ebook

    Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

    #1 I had to get really critical about myself and my experience. I was having a good time despite the apparent apocalypse, and I was thriving. I was having friends, dates, Netflix, and cocktails.

    #2 I grew up in a family that was affected by the Trail of Tears, and I was also affected by the violence that surrounded me. I channeled my anger and frustration into activism and community service.

    #3 I had to learn how to start grieving and mourning in a way that I had never learned before. I had to learn how to take care of myself, instead of going off and whooping people’s ass or cussing people out.

    #4 We must understand that at some point we must develop an attitude of needing to love everything, especially what is unlovable. Everything has a place, and if it’s outside of our experience, it becomes dangerous for us.

      We must be willing to look at the things we habitually run away from in order to see them for what they are, not as we have imagined them. This is the path of liberation through anger.

      Insights from Chapter 2

      #1

      My anger is old, personal, and dependable. It is older than me yet younger than the youngest child I know. It is so old that most people no longer believe that it was ever born to begin with. It is the primordial deity that we come to worship, thinking that it will be the revolutionary leader who will set us free.

      #2

      I realized that I was angry, and that my anger was deeply rooted in every part of my body. I had been hiding my anger and hurt behind a mask of activism and kindness, but I was beginning to see the truth behind that mask.

      #3
