Healthy anger is a feeling that moves a person to live with passion. Passion is the gift we receive when we live our lives expressing healthy anger. 

Passion is a willingness to be in pain for something that is greater than comfort or pain.

It communicates that a person values the heart and cares about something greater than his own self-protection, and vulnerability.

Healthy anger moves us to care, hunger, thirst, hope, want, and desire. It moves us to deal with and express the truths of the heart. It expresses our willingness to be vulnerable enough to care about something.

A man who has passion is going to be on mission to accomplish that which he is moved from within to do. 

A man is created to be capable of intimacy, or “into-me-see.” In other words, he is capable of sharing the truths of his heart.
