Through years of meditation, yoga, guru mantras, and self-help books- I find myself, and my children angry from time to time and the anger beckons to be expressed.

I refuse to believe that there is something wrong with anyone because they feel and express anger- It has been my personal experience and journey that if I don't feel anger- I don't feel anything at all-it is all apart of the beauty and complexity of human emotion. Anger is the other side of love, and if you feel anger-it means you are alive. How many of us have been led to believe that a numb, placid, apaethic state is the norm for American society, especially in reference to children and the education system.

The problem with anger lies souly in where and whom our anger is directed to or at, coupled the shame and guilt we have for feeling it.

The anger monster can never be slayed, and transform it will- usually under the guise of the word love and illness-

If any of you have ever received an anger "kiss" or a mechanical "I love you" -you know what I mean.

This leads us into the realm of education, homeschooling and or unschooling,

How do we unschool our children or even begin to think of freedom oriented learning- if we don't first "unschool" ourselves in the restrictive unrealistic lies we have been taught in our own childhood concerning human emotion and thoughts? I was taught as a child that even thoughts were bad, and one time I admitted to my parents that I had secretly wished they were dead and came to them out of guilt and apologized-guess what happened? I was spanked and told not to think those thoughts anymore. I have sought desperately with my own children to give them their own mind and not become apart of the oppressive moral mind police regime.

How about becoming conscious of the dragon of anger, accepting it and releasing it when it becomes prudent to do so-

Keep the pathways of humanity and human emotion OPEN!!!
