I don't know if I ever remember feeling this way.
My head is congested with a million and a half thoughts right now because of something
that happened that caused me to feel hurt, sad and worst of all, stupid. It's similar to feeling embarrassed.
When we're not embarrassed but mad we may think irrational thoughts like,
I'm going to break something or throw something. And when we feel humiliated we want to run far, far away.
How do we find the happy place?
When I get pissed off there's a good chance I won't say much. I'm a lady of very few and specific words. So few words, in fact that sometimes when I say them, they come out backwards. I love words. I focus in on them, seek them, crave them. Words create the things we use to get what we want and so when I'm mad at you there's not much I want from you and therefore I will say few things to you. But I will go to my happy place and play out different possible resolutions for the conflict.
I don't like confrontation. The most trouble I like to get in is speeding; that's it!
So when we fight - you and me - and when you fight with someone else, think about what the reason is and be as specific as possible. Narrow it down to the exact minute and second in time that you were made to be angry or embarrassed or hurt and make it known to whomever is responsible.
Then see how they react.
And you go to your happy place wherever that is and you do what you do best
Use Your Words.
Go to your happy place and rest.
