I’m just not angry

3 Jun

I tweeted yesterday that I scrawled something in my journal in my therapist’s parking lot so it would look like I’d done something. The topic has been on my mind for a while. This is what I wrote:

Many fat girls are angry. It seems like a lot of fat bloggers are angry. Angry at:

Themselves

Their parents

The “fashion” industry

The men in their lives

“Skinny bitches”

The food industry

Mainstream media

God

Airlines

Barbie

And on & on & on.

I’m not really all that angry. Maybe I’d be a better writer if I were.

I used to have a political bumper sticker that said, “If you’re not angry, you’re not paying attention.”

I think I’m attentive. I’m

Just

Not

Angry.

(& I’m not even medicated!)

    That’s great! Being happy is awesome. Those debbie downers are just annoying. I agree, there is no reason to be angry.
