Therefore I am full of the fury of the LORD; I am weary with holding in: I will pour it out upon the children abroad, and upon the assembly of young men together: for even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the aged with him that is full of days.Holding in anger is a sure way to stress out oneself! While it is good to let the anger out, it is better not to incur it in the first place.
~ King James version ~
The valley spirit never dies;
It is the woman, primal mother.
~ from Verse 6 of the Tao Te Ching ~
Tao is never angry because anger originates from ego and desire; Tao possesses neither. If anything, Tao is a nurturer of life, death and the ever present flow from one to the other.
