Speak when you are angry – and you’ll make the best speech you’ll ever regret. – Dr. Laurence J. Peter
If someone wrongs you and hurt your feelings, surely you deserve to be a bit upset about it. Nothing wrong to be angry a bit, but the anger should not last for a long time. If we are angry, we don’t think clearly and reason properly.
Maybe there are people in your life that continue to disappoint you and make you angry. Or it could be a situation in your life that you are frustrated about. Yet still anger, should not be allowed to rule in your mind. Holding on to it is not a solution to your problem. Anger will not make someone who disappoints you change. Most people think if they get angry they’ll be on top of the situation; they think it will make them feel better and think it is the answer to get things resolved.
If people don’t do what they are supposed to do and you try to nicely show them how they should do what it is they are supposed to do and they still don’t do, it’s not your fault. So don’t be too angry. If someone embarrasses you, yes it’s embarrassing, but you can’t go back to time and change the situation. It’s already happened! You need to find ways to wisely deal with the situation without being too angry about it.
Too much anger will destroy you. It will make you react and act in its own ways. The best thing to do is to let the anger go first and deal with whatever situation you have in front of you wisely. Always be alert not to act under the influence of anger. If you are feeling furious, just let the anger come out first, deny it residence and then deal with the situation. Try by all means to keep your mouth shut waiting for wisdom to take over and then speak.
If you give way to anger, you lose power and control. You should always be in control.
“Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.” - Buddha
