“Anger can be reduced if we work to cultivate love and affection. However, we first have to come to terms with whatever benefits or disadvantages anger may bring. Primarily, anger destroys our peace of mind; loving-kindness earns us friends and eliminates the risk of being alone.”
His Holiness the great 14th Dalai Lama

Anger is a symptom of being triggered subconsciously. To deny it is self-defeating. There is information in the triggering. When we come to terms with the trigger (often a suppressed memory) – forgiving the entire situation (both past and present), then we can step into our future less encumbered and with more clarity.
