Understanding the Anger of Terrorists

.

Anger is the most misunderstood of all human emotions. It is also the most powerful of all human emotions after the emotion of love.  The difference is, love builds and unifies people while anger divides and destroys people. 


In, worst case situations, in order to commit acts of violence, uncontrolled anger must be present. Anger ALERTS people that their sense of justice has been violated. Anger tells people they must 'right the wrongs' that have been done to them even if that meaning killing people. 



Anger blinds us to what we have in common with our fellowman and only allows us to see our hateful differences. Anger gives permission to 'angry people' to live by their own rules and disregard the rules of the country, state or community in which they live.

People who commit acts of violence or abuse other people allow their anger to run them rather than them running their anger. People who allow their anger to dictate their actions are victims of their own anger rather than controlling their anger and becoming the master of it.  

A person who has mastered their emotion of anger has non-physical courage while those people who are victims of their anger are only able to display physical courage, which often times, results in death. In the end, anger, not mastered, stops people from creating the life they want, the life they dream of having, the life they know God wants them to have.

I am as angry as any terrorist alive but I have chosen to use the 'energy of my anger' to learn how to live in harmony with people who think, act and believe differently than I do.  Anyone can kill or wound another human being but it takes a person of non-physical courage to use his anger to build a better world for everyone with no one left out.  I have been working for years developing and strengthening my non-physical courage. Why?  Because I intend for my non-physical courage to be the legacy I leave to my children, my grandchildren and the children who come after them. I am leaving this legacy to them in the hopes that 'non-physical courage' will be the tool that ends the path of violence and destruction and begins the path of peace, harmony and cooperation that men, women, and children everywhere can enjoy.

Terrorists are Very Unhappy People? Yes??

?.

Terrorists are very unhappy people? Yes??  Think about it for a moment, would a happy person ever have the need to kill himself (herself) or others? I think not.  It is people who are suffering immense emotional, mental or physical pain who believe that by killing themselves or others, their pain will end.  Unfortunately, the pain they feel in this lifetime goes with them into the next lifetime until they take full responsibility for how they feel in the 'here and now' and change the way they think. Terrorism is based on the principle of ingratitude, The attitude of ingratitude pollutes the mind and body with toxic poisons and make terrorists see everyone who thinks, looks or acts differently than they do as the enemy that must be eradicated at all costs. Ingratitude only sees the worsts in things.

Synonyms for Ingratitude:  demanding, dissatisfied, faultfinding, insensible,  self-centered, selfish, unappreciative, unmindful, unnatural,  barren, disagreeable, distasteful,  miserable, not worth it, ungrateful, unrewarding, useless, vain, wretched.  (Do these synonyms describe a terrorist?)

There are two types of terrorists, people who terrorize other people and people who terrorize themselves, scaring themselves half to death by the thoughts they choose to think, especially thoughts that cause painful feelings of ingratitude.

As you can see from reading the synonyms for ingratitude, it is no wonder feelings of ingratitude makes people feel so miserable and unhappy. Ingratitude not only makes people feel miserable, it makes life not worth living for them and it causes them to feel suicidal. Gratitude on the other hand reverses all the damage ingratitude has done and returns us to our natural state of happiness.
