…For I think anger must be a coward way of expressing sadness if it chooses the easier option of yelling and violence than being brave enough to admit it’s hurt and in pain.
Tuesday morning, as I walked down the many aisles of my local grocery store, I saw something that caught my attention in the health and personal hygiene section, it appeared to be a mum and her teenage daughter having one of those feared adolescent moments as they stood in front of the monthly Easter Uterus Bunny visits shelf, it was awkwardly cute I’ll admit and caught my curiosity to how those unique family moments are experienced, the mother seemed rather conservative as she dressed in these old fashioned long sleeved clothes even though it was boiling outside, she wore this golden cross that hang well centered on her chest (you know, cause I bet that’s the first thing Jesus wants to see when he ‘returns’ to Earth…”Daddy Daddy, I don’t want to go back, look at what they all carry around their necks! =S”, it’s as if you go up to John Lennon’s window Yoko Ono and tell her, “Yoko!, see this pin on my jacket of a revolver *smile*, I carry it in Johhny’s honor”, I bet she’d be thrilled…), she laughed a little as the daughter kept looking down and blushing, then suddenly the daughter reaches up to grab a colorful packet and before her hand managed to grasp it, an abrupt outburst of voices in Italian was heard throughout the shop followed by the lady throwing a packet of pads to her daughter as it bounced off her shoulder and onto the floor close to my feet, my Italian isn’t great at all but with my Spanish I managed to understand a few things like “absorvente interno” and “diavolo”, from the whole situation I came to the conclusion she was saying something along the lines of…”TAMPONS ARE THE DEVILS WORK!!!”, but of course I always understand things the way I’d find them more amusing :S.
How can this happen though, how can we go from being happy and calm to angry and full of rage in the blink of an eye?
