Actually, "rising above it" feels pretty good. In the moment, there is the smug satisfaction that comes with keeping one's cool, and then later at 2 am there are no nightmares, no apologies to compose. The next day, you've got no higher authority to answer to. Two weeks down the road, there is a very pleasant sensation of being mature and responsible, of seeing the bigger picture, of knowing you are the larger of the two people. Not bad stuff!
