Today I learn the law of love; that what I give my brother is my gift to me.

At my window this morning, in an effort to serenely begin my day I read the above quote which is offered by the Zig Ziegler site. It so resonates with my life right now, today, in that I am in touch with that "law" and desire living it.
It seems every once in a while I find myself in the middle of two points of view and in trying to please everyone, especially myself, my suppressed feelings begin to make me sick, melancholy and then turn to anger. I am at the anger stage now and am not delighted over thinking that the anger must be shared if only to keep others aware of who I am and my need to be that person and not who somebody else wants me to be.
Am I selfish? If I am true to my beliefs, even if my beliefs are wrong somewhere somehow, am I selfish to scream out and let myself be rid of the anger that stirs me to boiling? Is it just society that judges the behavior as wrong or is it disturbing the Universe's balance? And I know I don't mind about society's judgement, BUT unbalancing the plusses and minuses in the "U"? Is that where I want to go? If the above stated law of love is the "truth", then am I placing a plus into the "U"? Maybe if I let go of the anger and scream and boil and just state my opinion calmly, will that put this onto the plus side?
Off to paint with the girls...and to try to breathe, to smile, to find some answers.
