The Dance of Anger
This comes from the book “Marriage and the Family. Diversity and Strengths” by David H. Olson who refers us to yet another book “The Dance of Anger” by Harriet Golhor Lerner.
“It is our job to state our thoughts and feelings clearly and to make responsible decisions that are congruent with our values and beliefs. It is not our job to make another person think and feel the way we do or the way we want them to.” - Harriet Goldhor lerner (1985)
“Anybody can get angry… that is easy, but to be angry with the right person, and to the right degree and at the right time, and the right purpose.. that is not within everybody’s power and is not easy.” Aristotle
