Giving something up...

[Jasriella]

I do not think it is possible to rid somebody of an emotion, but it is possible to convert that emotion. Hatred is of course one of the malignant emotions that everybody feels at some point, its an unfortunate reality but true. And the best of people, being otherkin or not, know how to take that hate and transform it into understanding and reason.

I have not raised my emotions to the point of rage in the past 5 years because I have found a way to take that rage and convert it into logic and reason, and in tow I avoid the oncoming brawl. The last time I have brought myself to the point of wild rage was when my sister was being beaten and dragged across the ground by her collar by one of the neighbor kids, I came unglued and lost all control, and when I finally made sense of what was happening the poor kid was a bloody mess. I'm afraid of this happening ever again because I could end up killing somebody, and when I feel this fear at its highest, I then take a moment to calm down and use logic and reason to combat it. Without this fear I would not be able to use logic and reason to take it over and my rage would be unpredictable and uncontrolable.

I'm Scottish. Plenty of obcenities are directed at many things on a regular basis.
Including trucks.

However, your description of my reaction to an oncoming vehicle is quite accurate, however, not being completely stupid, I would first endeavour to make sure there were no oncoming trucks at the time I chose to step onto the road in the first place.
Furthermore, many drivers seem confused by the fact that I can gauge thier vehicles speed and distance to me better than they can. The sight of me patiently waiting on the line for them to pass me seems to terrify them for some reason.
