Anger


When we think of Independence, naturally we think of Gandhiji too.And his methods of fighting struck me.Anger does not necessarily mean violence,he proved it.Anger can be expressed in positive way too.The best example is our own national father "Mahatma Gandhiji" it was his anger that fetched us a free India.He expressed anger in a very different way that succeeded too.He showed his anger by non-violence.Being violent will take no where.Anger can bring the worst and the best in human.Best only if that anger is expressed positively.Worst is seen with almost all of us,we take advantage of anger.We need a reason to bring the evil in us,we blame it on anger.

Without emotions under our control we are not going to control anything.First we must be under our control,we must know what we do,what its effects could be.One who has control over his/her emotions will succeed.Just by showing our anger on others or something else it doesn't mean we have an edge over them.It will fetch nothing but a black mark on our character.

Decisions taken in anger have never succeeded.A moment of foolishness will cost a life too.While in anger never take any decision,be it small or big.The reason being,we are not normal while we are angry.Our mind doesn't think the same way it used to.It doesn't see the logic,its not patient enough to see the merits and demerits of that decision.A delayed decision is better than a bad one.Just because of the anger we need not regret for long time,better to be late than to regret.

Never spill words,no way we can retake those.That too in anger,while our emotions are at worst,words will flow out and definitely in bad taste .An uttered statement in bad taste will never be forgotten,may its forgiven but not forgotten.Many of us take advantage of that situation to throw the garbage we have in our mind.Bad words neither shows the best part of our character nor the vocabulary.Its just the worst part.

It is said as one's character is known only in his/her bad times and definitely anger is one such disaster.One who manages it well will succeed.Anger could be used constructively too,but we prefer the other one - destructive.Obviously its tough to go constructively,so we prefer the lighter one.But the latter is never going to help,may be it helps for a short term but not in long run.

Anger can be expressed in art,literature and many more forms.These could be useful for some one in our situation.But take care that no one is hurt by your anger.If at all that anger is gone,then you must be in a position to face them.It doesn't make two minus in to one plus.One really needs patience to keep emotions under control.Developing patience is not a bad idea at all.It really helps in more than one way.

Patience is the need of hour,now that times are changing patience has become outdated and out of fashion.I strongly believe that this is the best way to survive peacefully in this World.I would be happy if at least one of the readers is benefited or even if a thought arises about patience.
