Anger
Comments (0) When anger rises, think of the consequences.
-Confucius
Most difficult task for human mind is to control unwanted emotions. We when placed in unfavorable or extremely disgusting situation develop angerto make hurt/irritation feelings even. We grew up with anger right from the beginning of the life so there is nothing new that we become angry , its natural but at the same time, we should keep in mind “the consequences” of any reactions reflected in situation.
We should understand difference between “Anger” and “Feeling hurt” or “irritated”.We all feels hurt or irritated when something/someone obstructs our needs and desires.Now, with hurt feelings or irritated situation of mind, we think to make situation even by taking revenge and thats exactly emotional state called “Anger”.
For example, when another car suddenly cuts in front of your car on the road, adrenaline pumps into your bloodstream. Your heart rate jumps. Your blood pressure surges. These things, however, are just immediate fight-or-flight physiological responses to a perceived threat.
But then, as a psychological reaction to these immediate physical responses, indignation and animosity toward the other driver overrun your mind. You honk your horn. You give a dirty look. You scream a curse. And there you have it: anger. Anger, therefore, is the wish for harm or bad or evil to come upon someone or something that—in your eyes—has injured or obstructed you.
A healthy response to feelings of hurt and insult is simply to acknowledge that you’re hurt.follow the hurt back into its roots in the past to all those times and circumstances when you felt the same way and avoid the popular response to feelings of hurt and insult.
