Hot Tempered Is Not an Excuse.

Good day, people of Hive! Welcome to my blog. Today's topic is from Hive-Learners which says:Tempted. So let's dive in.

Honestly, I believe that having a hot temper is something that can destroy many things if we're not careful or if it is not controlled properly. Yes, we all get angry sometimes because it's part of human emotions, but the problem start when they allows that anger to control them. And the saddest part is that people with hot tempers usually react before they think, and in most cases, the damage has already been done before they even calm down.

I have seen several situations where people said hurtful things in anger that they later regretted. Some anger can even destroy relationships, friendships, marriages, and even opportunities if one is not careful. The painful thing is that words spoken in anger cannot always be taken back. Yes, we can apologise to the person, but sometimes the person we hurt may never forget how we made them feel. The person may say they have already forgiven us but the word has already being spoken and it can lead that person to distance themselves from us. That is why I do not think anger should always be excused. Because we have some people that will say "That's how I am" or "I have a bad and hot temper."

If is to me, I will say having a hot temper should never become an excuse to hurt people repeatedly. Yes, we have some people struggling with controlling their anger, while some may even grow up in an environment or homes where shouting, fighting was seen as a normal thing. But at the same time, everyone of us still has a responsibility to work on ourselves. If someone knows that they easily get angry, then they should always know or learn how to control it or better still, before saying out a hurtful words they should firstly think about the word they want to say before saying it out.

And also, society doesn't help at all and they are the one making the issue getting worse. The reason why I said this is that instead of society to find solution to it, you hear them saying: "Leave him alone, that's just his character" or "She is naturally hot-tempered", which is not supposed to be. And because people are hearing such word they feel there is no need for them to change. But meanwhile, the people around them are the one getting affected either emotionally, mentally or even physically.

As a society I think one of the way we can address this hot-tempered issues is by teaching children how to control their emotions or anger in young age. We have many people that grow up without learning how to control their anger or express their frustration in a healthy way. Also, we have some people that if you just mistakenly step on them or just touch them unintentionally, the way they will burst out their anger, you will think they have already mean you in mind and expecting you to make a mistake. They will say anything that comes to their mind and mouth that moment without them knowing that they've already said something they're not supposed to say.

Another thing that cause hot-tempered is when someone is stressed out and frustrated, they likely to vent out their anger on innocent people. And we have some people because people did not give them listening ears, they burst out their anger. Sometimes, we have some people that carry pain inside for a long time until they explode over a small situation. I also think that people should learn to walk away when they are too angry, by doing that they won't say what they don't mean. Not every argument must be settle immediately. Sometimes, walking away when angry is better than saying hurtful things we don't mean.

In conclusion, we should always know when and how to prevent and control our anger because anger is not a good thing and it causes damage and relationship.
