UNCONTROLLED ANGER.
I once knew the story of a man who married a very beautiful
wife. As at the time of their marriage, the wife had not gotten a good job. So
it was the husband that was financing everything. A year and seven months after
the wedding, the wife got a job with an NGO of which the salary was almost times
6 of the husbands. This made the husband very jealous and unhappy so he
confronted the wife and told her that he wouldn’t want her to go for the job. She
was surprised and as they dragged the issue that fateful morning, both of them
got so angry that it moved from exchange of words to exchange of blows. Before
anything could happen, the husband got hold of the knife on the dining table to
scare his wife to stop talking like that to him. But she continued and told him
he couldn’t do it. Eventually, the unimaginable happened. HE STABBED HER and
that was how she died.
Friends we’ve been angry at one point in time or the other.
The truth is if we react just by the way we feel, we might destroy things
beyond measure but if we calm down and allow certain things to pass, then
re-visit it later, it would have saved us from unwanted pain that could be
caused by uncontrolled anger.
So control your anger so you don’t bear consequences of
things you never planned to get into.
