Put An End to Anger

PUT AN END TO ANGER

On a fine spring day, a man was driving cheerfully along a picturesque road, which winds through the lazy countryside. Suddenly, from around the next curve, a car barrels towards him in his lane. He breaks hard, and as it swerves fast, the womon driver screamed at him, “Pig! Pig!” Furious, he shouted back at her’ “Sow! Sow!” Pleased with himself he drives around the curve and runs smack into a pig. Anyone can get angry. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose and in the right way is not so easy. Which is to say, most of the time we may get angry either with the wrong person, or to the wrong degree, or at the wrong time, or for the wrong purpose, or in the wrong way. But then, that’s the way it is with anger. It just happens! We can’t always “do anger right,” so ancient biblical wisdom offers an excellent solution for managing it. It teaches, “Don’t let the sun set on your anger.” Of course, problems cannot always be solved by bedtime, and deep-seated anger may take time to heal. But even anger needs an ending time. Maybe it is time to put an end to anger you have carried far too long. Today? If you’re angry at a loved one, hug that person. And mean it. You may not want to hug–which is all the more reason to do so. It’s hard to stay angry when someone shows they love you, and that’s precisely what happens when we hug each other.
