Anger/Wrath Activities

Choose one of the following activities, do it, and write a 300-400-word reflection paper on It making sure that your reflection includes discussion of the vice

 (if you do an activity that shows up again, you must choose a different activity)

1.    For 72 hours, keep track of the occasions during which you become angry, annoyed, frustrated, or irritated.  Note what the reason was.  (E.g., was the occasion of anger an offense to you, or to someone else?)  Note how angry you became, for how long, and whether the anger recurred after some reminder of the initial occasion. After you have finished reflect on commonalities between the objects of your anger (frustration, annoyance, etc) and how what you get angry about reveals what you care about. 

2.    For 24 hours briefly record every time you get angry, frustrated, annoyed, etc.  For the next 48 hours, attempt to see everyone you encounter as first and foremost your neighbor, and attempt to love them as though they are you.  After you have done this for 48 hours reflect on how your levels of anger, frustration, annoyance, etc. changed

3.    Choose one person that you have offended and apologize to him or her (preferably in person). Choose one person that has irritated or bothered you and forgive that person; you must attempt to let the person know that you have forgiven them (but do so only if it is appropriate)

4.    Attempt to discover from Holy Scripture the various things that anger God.  Compare and contrast the things that make God angry with the things that make you angry (frustrated, annoyed, etc).
