When a child throws a tantrum, he’d cry and scream and wail. He’d flail his arms and throw himself on the floor. Like a child I have tantrums too. But I have grown past the luxury where it is acceptable for me to openly showcase such explosive displays of displeasure and discontent. So what do I do? I have to carefully select words that possibly could capture the essence of the disquiet in my heart and mind. And I pen them down in tears. This is me, and I’m throwing a tantrum.
