Staying separate from another’s anger is vitally important. Let the anger be in the other person. He will have to feel his anger to get better. If you either rescue him from it or take it on yourself, the angry person will not get better and you will be in bondage.
A great takeaway for me...becoming aware of this and getting away from the toxic concept of "enduring others' nonsense is my duty and expectation" has been a freeing concept in my life.
