Letting off steam, it's good for you

I spoke to Sparkling Eyes last night and she was letting off steam.  I don't blame her.  It is always good once in a while to really have a good vent when things just get to the point of making your blood boil.  Mind those things will be different for everyone.  One of mine has always been trying to get off the train when there is a crowd  in front of me trying to get on and not giving me enough space.  Talking to someone you know who isn't going to question what you say and just accept you're pissed off is great.  At the moment of showing your pissed off there is a lot of emotion and passion, it shows you really care about something.  Although sometimes it is necessary to make adjustments.  Like in my case.  I have to adjust and accept there are a lot of morons in the world who don't understand the principle of "let passengers off the train first before you try and get on."  This used to be something the station personnel would announce of the public address system they don't now.  Lazy sods.  Then there is always an individual who will not accept what you are saying and either one make you more pissed off than you already are, which isn't a good thing or two try and get you to see it from a different point of view.  This is in the sense of the world.  L & B man kind of does this but not because he is all wise and knowing, it's because he can't be bothered to hear what you have got to say.  So his simple retort is "get over it," or in other words just let go.  It's true.  Sometimes things can eat away at you and the result is it can not be good for your health or the people around you.  So letting go of something is taking back some control.  Even if it doesn't change the situation at all.  Yet even getting to this point of realisation you just have to let off a little bit of steam.  Not an entire steam train across Europe, hopefully.

At one point I used to consider revenge.  Always thinking it was best tasted cold as the saying goes.  But the reality is, once you have given something a bit of time.  You just realise it's not worth the effort and rise above it.  Not only this but the kind of revenge I had in mind could of got me into trouble.  But what you think about isn't a crime, it's what you do.  So yes, let off steam.  Have a bloody good rant.  Then pick yourself up and do your best to change the situation by diverting those energies somewhere else.  Bird watching, humming a favourite tune, making really good food to eat.  No wonder my waist line is getting bigger.
