Summary

This quote captures the frustration and uneasiness of being angry without a specific person or reason to direct that anger towards. It conveys the difficulty of dealing with general feelings of anger, as it leaves individuals in a state of confusion and unrest. It implies that it can be easier to cope with anger when there is a clear target, as it provides a sense of justification or resolution.

As for meditation, I would like you to be a disciple of pray

As for meditation, I would like you to be a disciple of prayer, because without prayer there is no habitual union with God. You need a type of prayer which is suited to your temperament, your situation, your inner inclination, consequently, your heart. Speak simply and candidly to our Lord as with another self, as with your sister. Be a child who is full of love and surrendered to her good maker. Let it be an interior conversation with God more than a work of the mind. Then, a scattered, distracted meditation will come together, because it will express all the thoughts and needs of your heart.
