So hello again, hello and welcome everyone to this edition of Happy Hour.

It's lovely to be with you, to practice with you.

So for this edition of Happy Hour, I want to introduce a topic of one of, so meta is,

antidote, is practiced as an antidote for many things, to many things,

including anger.

So I wanted to talk a little bit about anger, especially at this time of, well, any time, right?

Anger is such a common human emotion, right?

I was going to say social division,

but you don't need social division to experience anger, right?

It's a human emotion.

It comes, it goes.

So a few words about anger.

One is, you know, anger, when it comes up as a signal that it injustice has happened, something

is unfair, something is inappropriate, something is morally, not quite appropriate.

It serves as a signal. It serves as a signal. So not to just show it away or squash it,

but use it as a signal. I'm not so much talking about that kind of an anger that comes up and

one pauses and instead of acting out of it, you decide, oh, here's a signal.

What's appropriate here?

What is appropriate here?

Appropriate action.
