Pain and Anger.

"There is no pain. Pain only exists if you allow it," says one of my karate instructors.

I agree completely.

Lately, I've gotten good at compartmentalizing both my physical and emotional pain.

It doesn't mean I don't feel. I just take a few deep breaths and let it go.

If you give into your pain, you run the risk of losing control.

I suppose the same is true with anger.

I suppose the same could be said of writing. What you fear isn't the pain but the exorcism of the pain of the fear.

Yep. I guess that's true.
