Anger :
"The key to Self imprisonment, which can't allow the soul to rest. Everyone should get it right"
I could be angry, but I'm not stupid, anger doesn't seem to me stupidity, I can't be stupid and say I am angry. My anger is subjected to my motions and how I want it to last. If I say I don't get angry, then I'm a liar. But in anger, I owe myself, I control my emotions; no wan is entitled to do so for me.
My emotions taught me two things: one, be angry but don't be stupid and remember that your emotion is a nature, which I have the key and control over it. Subject it to whatever level I can, so that would make sense of myself and maintain my self-respect in the end.
Like rightly stated in the prompt, some countries their government are doing too much like my own country Nigeria. So tel me, if you are in Nigeria; you would understand the essence of patience.
I only survived by patient in Nigeria, too many things are happening, hunger, unemployment, insecurity issues; bad economy and all of those. Adding anger to is wouldn't make sense, that doesn't mean I haven't been provoked to anger.
A neighborhood of mine, beat up a child, and I caution the adults; letting then know how to make sense of anger and stupidity. He heated me for that and called me names. It doesn't make sense, right? His actions to me worth yelling at him back. I needed some money, to hit up a business, and I spoke with my tenant about it: It wasn't undue, his rent had expired three months ago.
But he couldn't pay, that was quite understandable, but he said federal government is owing. I'm trying to cut the narrative short, we all know what that slogan means. I was angry, and bittered by his response. Not the response of not having to pay. His manner of approach. It deserves to my extreme anger.
It doesn't take me anything to show up, and mess up things for him, the money is huge, a good build. But I own the power of my anger. Some people will say, I smile over my anger. I don't smile over it. Because if I do, it will never get out of my mind.
I walked out of him, that is how I control my anger; if I don't leave at that minute, it would definitely be bloody. No pretence. And immediately I'm off the stage of my anger, I speak with one or two persons; that big jokes end it. But We call my offender the next day I tell him I didn't like his approach, if they are within my reach or else that's over.
But this doesn't happen so easily, I know we all would always smile and walk away. Prompts of this nature require an honest article. People are reading to learn behind us. Back to the discussion, and I am human, insofar, I am human I am going to feel hurt, my words would hurt you so much, but I mind the words I unleash.
Yes, at first, my words; would hurt. That is, after like few minutes, if your anger is what happened doesn't make any sense. Like the tenant I mentioned; I didn't just work out; at first, we slammed at each other a little, fact. But my jokes; are full of life, I employed some jokes, and he quickly apologized to me. But I didn't act stupid; So before I got home that afternoon, I sat out with a few old friends, and after I exhausted the jokes, that was it.
So whenever anger is not stupidity but when you don't know how to control it, is becomes foolishness; I only needed the money, he will pay, but if because of how he responded and I to decide to make it escalate, that would have been bad.
Not matter the situation, get anger but don't get stupid. Understand how your body works, people say I can't. Doesn't exist. Everyone have the potential and ability to look out for their weaknesses and properly manage it.
Don't walk out; make sure you stay safe; how do stay safe by letting yourself be the one to control your emotions. Remember, when we speak, the ability to listen is also essential, by listening, you hear the next person trying to upset you.
Don't allow your heart to skip in too much anger. It is yours, the emotions and the feelings are yours. Why do you think others should determine for you how it should work?
So always learn and control it, people are passing through a lot. Just as the tenant. Be careful with your word; think before you speak. Significant way, I do this, too; I think before speaking. By doing so, I control my anger, and shame the enemy.
As if smile and walk away, if you don't smile and walk away in most cases in Nigeria I dare you, the anger might even end your life.
