Scream

You are overwhelmed these days by anxiety and anger over the state of the world. You decide a little scream therapy is in order. You go outside and start screaming at the top of your lungs.
How long do you continue to scream before you feel better?
Do any of your neighbors come out and scream with you?
Does anyone who can make things better hear you scream?
I don’t have an answer for you or for myself. But just wanting to scream reminds me I must resist being too numbed by mindless TV, video games, too much craft beer and too much sports. I must remember that the suffering world requires some of my attention too.
