You might appreciate my poem on emotional intelligence, https://medium.com/know-thyself-heal-thyself/of-emotional-intelligence-ffa90d946d59. The three tanka, one dizain, and two imayo stanzas poem ends with:
"Time for an imayo course, of intense EQ
Do not pursue happiness — it and sadness both fleet
Contentment is where you’ll find, serene state of mind
Allow emotions to flow, return there lest blow
Please understand the stoics, don't push feelings down
The word does not reflect roots, Marcus A. rolls eyes
Do not get carried away, yet please deeply feel
If you lava dome feelings, end up like Pompei"
The responded to these two prompts:
"12. How can you become more mindful of the way you handle composure vs. emotional expression?
13. How can practicing feeling your feelings fully, even when it is deeply uncomfortable, benefit you?"
Regarding anger, I wrote this tanka in May 2021:
"Anger has value
Signals moral core raided
My space invaded
Blood boiling yet controlled rage
Saber of Light rules the page"
