How Do You Control Your Anger?

Obviously, there is just one thing that I want to do whenever I had enough of everything -- I want to burst open. My anger is running down my veins. I can't help it. I can't stop it. My heart is pumping anger through my veins and arteries, and I can't do anything to stop it, or else, I will die.

Would you like me to die, for God's sake?

In the first place, why do people get angry?

Is it because someone had a row with them?
Is it because someone had a bad day with other people?
Is it because someone had not achieved his expectations?

Or is it because someone had tried not to lower down his own pride?

We all know the answer.

We all get angry, apparently, for some eligible reasons.

In my case, I usually get angry when I feel like people have betrayed me.

Like they have taken a lot of my good nature, and yet, they all have treated like I'm nothing.

Like I'm futile, and that I'm only of acquaintance to them when necessity has arisen.

What an arse attitude, to begin with!

And after that, everything have seemed not to be bearing with me.

Bad day at home, bad day outside, things getting broken in one touch, or having rows with inanimate things-- this is how life looks like once anger has started sinking down on us. Nothing is okay, to cut it short.

How do we fix things then?

Can we still fix things that got broken after your outburst?

Sometimes yes, sometimes no.

But things start getting okay, when we start lowering our pride. And start feeling sorry to those people we've hurt during the times we were feeling down.

As soon as we see things in a different light, then that's the time we will come to realize that life indeed, is better, where there is mutual understanding, where there is patience, where there is emotion control, when there is love. 

Well, folks, we are all aware that anger is a result of misunderstanding. And misunderstanding is simply inevitable. It's part of human 'ecosystem'. The equilibrium of human beings and our emotions.If every human is considered perfect, then life wouldn't be fun to live, would it be?

So the questions has now come to light, how do we control anger then?

First, try NOT to be angry.

If we think that we are almost there, getting ready to burst anytime soon, then LEAVE. Stop and leave the place that causes your anger, for the meantime. Avoid the person that's causing you to heat up. Go to a place that could help you feel better. Mine is the cyberspace. Well, I live in a very congested place and my own house will surely not help me feel better, especially if the reason of my emotional outburst is right at my own house. Escape to a place that could help you breathe freely. 

Second, AVOID situations that will end up as heated ones.

If you could avoid anger-inducing situations, do so. Avoid talking about things that could end up into heated discussions, those that are not healthy. For example, discussions about religion, politics, and stuffs like that. I have had a similar situation very recently, and we almost ended up bashing each other on the internet just because of our different opinion regarding religious stuff. I swear I will not bring it up here on the internet, much less if I want to start a fight on cyberspace.

Third, laugh but not too much.

If you think you can't avoid the first two situations above, then you ought to have some sort of defense. I've heard a lot of times already that laughter has always been the medicine. And in times of heated discussions, the best ice breaker is always a funny joke, or a funny anecdote, that would definitely put a period on both side of disagreement. Just make sure that your joke won't start a new reason for discussion again.

Here you go, fellas. 

Let's talk again soon!

Have a good day!

Your Chief in Charge,

as ALWAYS.

Welcome Aboard, Mate!

This is your chief, speaking.
Well, obviously, I'm just writing this down.

Alright, mates.
Supposedly, a blog should always be about something interesting. Something worthwhile reading.
But on my part, I don't think the purpose of a blog should end there. I mean, it can still have more purposes.
It can be something promotional, or something conventional, but in my case, this blog will serve as my diary. My public diary, if you don't mind me saying.

I have heard from a lot of people (when I say a lot of people, I mean some real friends, some imaginary friends, some colleagues, advisers of some sort, and everyone) that blogging, ehem, could make someone feel better. It could help you release the tension inside of you,especially, if you are feeling a little bit uptight these days, after perhaps a couple of rows with people around you. Well, this is an outlet. Outlet of my feelings. I don't mind telling people about my feelings, I am literally an open book. Even though, I haven't meant to be like that, a lot of people (again, I'm using a lot) have known a number of things about me, including the things that I haven't known myself yet.

So I'm writing this to serve as a warning. In a couple of days or so, you will be reading a number of articles with rants, dreams, and everything. I don't mean to be sensational to everyone. But I do care what all of you will say about this. Maybe you could even help me.


Everyone, welcome aboard!
Let's have all have a happy trip!


With love and respect,
your Chief in Charge.
