Anger?
by JWG
I guess I could say alot of people, and even myself at times, are lead to believe I have a "anger management" problem. "Oh, Jon, why the hell you so p/issed all the time, calm down man." It is a question that the answer to is so obvious it is funny, at times, although very few.
Today, I was thinking to myself, "Wow, I really do get angry alot, why am I really so p/issed all the time?" Maybe it was self-doubt, maybe I'm in denial, but could it just be that I live with the problems of today, and FACE them? I do something about it by preparing from today until the day I hit those yellow foot-prints where I will have the chance to earn that TITLE of Marine. Yes, EARNED,not received. To DEFEND this country when needed, and to go without any lip back to the Brothers who are higher than myself in the food chain.
Could it be that instead of ignoring the problem, I commit my life to it, only to be mocked or dis-respected because of my decision. Now, I know most of you reading this will be suprised or equally disgusted, but the real feeling we're feeling is sadness and disbelief, and it is indeed both saddening and hard to believe that others would mock you or put you down for such a "dumb" decision.
I call such a decision B-R-A-V-E.
Anger? No.
