Life does seriously challenge our moods, emotions and reactions,  which I am sure we all agree on.

We continually find ourselves reaching that point of overreacting out of frustration or to an unaddressed issue  that has been bothering us for while.

There really is no need for this to happen.

Relationships are a struggle enough to keep balanced without allowing all of the small stuff to build up and tumble down all at one time.

We must all learn and practice how to vent at the exact time that the irritation occurs. This will help avoid so many of those horrible outbursts which can either go on and on and on or leave us feeling like a super jerk.

Now do not get me wrong here...there are good and bad ways to vent or to calmly let someone know that they have stepped on your last nerve.

One very effective way to do this is to find a phrase that works for you.

Such as...'I love you too' with a bit of an underlying edge to it... 'Nice weather' How is the family?... or my all time favorite...'Bite Me'.

Have you not ever felt that you just wanted to say... BITE ME?

Well I certainly have, many times. And it feels darn good once said. It is like my own little personal shot at whatever gets to me at that moment.

Kind of like...............................

......when I visit another blog and instead of not only letting me know...wow.. they have taken the liberty of one of my articles, they also forgot to add my name.....

TYPE IT ~~BITE ME~~

Or when I am running with my dog and get pee'd on by this huge black lab...talk about feeling violated...

GROWL IT~~ BITE ME~~

Or when you are trying so hard to make a point and the opposing person will just not open his/her mind....

SAY IT~~BITE ME~~

When you are already in a race with the not so luv`d clock to get to work and some loser cuts you off only to drive 10 miles under the speed limit and then causes you to miss your green light ..... 

HONK IT~~BITE ME~~

It really helps on those bad hair and body days when your mirror is so not being kind to you....  

SAY IT~~BITE ME~~

For all you bloggers out there, you will feel this pain when you have just finished like the best ever post and you hit that frigging, placed in the wrong damn place, ctrl button and poof, no more post!...

SCREAM IT~~BITE ME~~

When you notice your guy taking an extra long look at some other female species..Oh totally ....

SAY IT WITH A POKE~~BITE ME~

You feel really, really down in the low self-esteem dumps and all you hear is , "get over it" ....grrrrr..

SAY IT~~BITE ME~~

You have just made the best sandwich ever and have been thinking about it all day , you turn your back for a minute and your dog has part of it hanging from its mouth with that, WHAT?..look on its face..

BARK IT~~BITE ME~~

You spend 2 hours trying to reserve a flight on your so called "people-friendly pc" and you finally get to the reserve page and it says.."there are no seats available on this flight"

SCREAM IT~~BITE ME~~

You leave a sexy message on you partners phone and he does not even know its you....eeeek..
 
SCREAM IT~~BITE ME~~

You are standing in a line up with your sweety ..and a younger couple is behind you and the girl turns to her guy and says" I hope we are still holding each other like that when we are that OLD"
   
HA~~FLICK IT~~BITE ME~~

For all you roadies(cyclists) out there, ever been cycling  and some  loser smacks your butt as they drive by and almost causes you to  crash..

FLICK IT~~BITE ME~~

You are laying on the floor with your dog and all of a sudden it gets up and shakes off something that feels very wet as it hits your face, only to see a pool of pee on the floor...EWWWWW...

FREAK IT~~BITE ME~~

So when you really really feel the frustrations of  life and want to reach out and kill someone, STOP..Instead reach out and freak it..flick it..scream it..bark it..growl it, honk it, type it and yes even poke it with ....

~~BITE ME~~

If our world was fought with those words, that actually do feel good, the world would be a much different place today!

I know, I know, and we would live in a perfect world. Well, I will never stop hoping for something even close to a perfect world.

~~BITE ME~~ (WINKS)

Please let me know in your comment....what your chosen phrase might be for learning how to vent.

To close this somewhat cute post, I am going to share a tip for all my sweet low self-esteemers out there.

Here is something to ponder when the lows get lower!
 

~~GET OVER IT~~

Whats the point of staying in that rut?

Are you happy there?

Are you just feeling sorry for yourself?

Are you using your sadness as a reason to complain?

Do you think anyone cares?

Do you think others should care?

Why should anyone care about you, when you do not even care enough to pull yourself out of that rut?

When you decide to care, we will care more.

Just do it..get up and out of that rut...you and only you can do it!

Take that rut and just say...

~~BITE ME~~
