Anger is an Energy
That lyric screamed over and over by Johnny Rotten used to be my mantra. My inspiration.
To do what, I don't know.
However, it's meaningless to me now.
Is it possible that I've matured??
And the reason that I bring that up is because someone asked me how badly I hated the girl who NEGLIGENTLY RUINED MY LIFE by striking me with a metal vehicle while I innocently, walked in a well marked walkway.
Sorry, I was practicing for the jury. Hopefully, there never will be one, but that's years away.
Without much thought, I replied, "no" and people expressed shock that I had no ill feelings towards the girl.
Although, she was negligent, she did not intend to hit me. She actually felt bad at the scene and wanted to assist me in any way possible. I guess my point is why be mad at negligence unless it rises to the level of criminal negligence (i.e. greedy oil companies with leaky tankers)? Car accidents are common and that's the reason that insurance is mandatory. Basically, I could see myself making the same mistake, so why crucify the girl who did everything right post accident.
Besides, how is being angry at her going to do anything for me? Supposedly, it's a negative, destructive energy, but I simply do not care enough. I'm more interested in recovery (and getting out of jury duty).
