Real life anger (aka my venting)
In my paper, I concluded that anger was a result of something/someone getting in the way of something you wanted.
Yep, it's true. It does make me angry.
It happened this evening. I wanted something to be one way and now it's not going to be that way because of others. Now, I don't even want to do any of it.
This has happened a lot in my life lately.
I am angry a lot lately.
Now for the not sinning part of the anger. Haven't quite figured that out yet. Where's that hole I want to go hide in? Argh!

NOT a photo I took. This is a photo of our wedding photographer and good friend Will Parris and his beautiful wife (also, one of my bridesmaids!). Check out his blog! He is an amazing photographer. I mean who can take such a great self portrait other than a great photographer.Photo courtesy of Parris Studios. (Did I do that right Will?)
A nice way to end my graduate education
So, I dutifully completed an assignment that was due midnight on Memorial Day. It was a survey on a particular word in the Bible. I chose "anger" from the 4 or 5 topics allowed. I just got it done. That's all I do... get it done.
Much to my surprise, I got on A on the paper. That wasn't the kicker...
The professor contacted me via email and asked if I would read my paper in class. My first thought after reading the email was, "I'm sure he got the wrong person." I reread my paper a bit and decided that it wasn't all that bad. So, I responded back with a "Sure." to the professor and then got a "Great." back.
This evening in class I did just that. It was torture. I was sweating. I was never as glad to get to the last page of the paper. Yet it was a cool honor nonetheless. And it was a great way to finish off a long career of graduate education.
