The milk of human kindness certainly has gone off with this one.
I know it's hurtful, I know it's painful but remember that for every miserable Charlie Uniform November Tango out there, there are dozens that are nice and hundreds that are neither nice nor nasty.
Just do what I do. Take a bowl and a taper candle. Cut it down until it's about the same height as the bowl unless it's a short taper. Place the candle into hte center of the bowl, melting a little wax to get it to stick. Fill the bowl until the water is about half-to-three quarters of an inch from the tip of the candle.
Now here's the fun part. Light the candle, stare into the candle and pour your rage into the flame. I mean really live it up. Bring up everything that has annoyed the heck out of you. Some schmuck cut you off on your way to work? Bring it up! Kids ate your last chocolate and lied their little butts off about it? Bring it up! That miserable twat-waffle tore into your manager and tried to belittle you? Bring it up and pour it into that candle! Use it to fuel Revel in your anger. Pour it into that flame. Hell, that flame BURNS because of your rage. Your rage FUELS that flame! Stop repressing it, bring it all up and let it flow through you! Don't hold back!
Then the wick will touch the water and the flame will go out. This should have been about 15 minutes worth of anger channeling. Many people as well as myself usually feel a sudden shock when the flame goes out and usually we're jolly well spent. Some even report feeling a bit silly afterward for dredging all that up and trying to nuke a candle with our minds. In any case, most of us just feel like we've managed to clear out all the anger and can go on feeling a whole lot better.
