Rage is not a very good state to be in. The rage is not the problem but what the rage can result to, is the problem.
Self control is a priceless thing. That you choose to be quiet and not react to something does not make you foolish but wise.
You may think anger and rage is a way to show that you are something. But that is the worst way to show it. I noticed that people who have anger issues have one or both of the following to deal with:
Impatience
Pride.
If one is high tempered and wants a change just look out for these traits. Take them down,and anger issues will come tumbling down.
This reminds me of something that recently occured in my area. It was a clear case of lack of self control.
This is how the story goes. Muslims usually take more than one wife at a time because their religion allows it. I guess muslim women have had to live with this. But this very one was a jealous one and could not live with that.
She had been with her husband for some years and they had children. I think the man thought it was time to take another wife and he had found a woman he thought of marrying.
His wife was really uncomfortable with the idea so when the woman stepped foot into their house, his wife was so enraged that she poured fuel on her and set her ablaze. After the incident she realized she was in trouble and immediately ran away with her kids.
It always happens that after an explosion of rage there is always something to regret.
She is still wanted today. She gave her freedom to few minutes of rage.She is now tagged a murderer. Not even free to be married to the husband she was fighting for. Is an explosion of rage worth it?
