NMM
Last weekend I spent 4 days in Wichita for their “Disruptor 002” rucking event. We themed the weekend around “The Patriot” and how unchecked anger is dangerous.

It was clear that we often allow anger to spill out over something small but the real issue is something much deeper. The root of anger is often pain we haven’t healed or fear we haven’t faced. The trigger isn’t always the problem; sometimes it’s just the tipping point.

Next time you react with anger, dig deeper for the reason you lashed out and address that issue. If not, you will continue to hurt the ones you love.
