When we deliver anger to others, it is usually about us. A good question to ask is this... What is it about me, that needs to react to you, or to the situation with anger?
And speaking of anger, when we attack people, we are acting out of our own shame. We can be angry without being ugly. What is so dark within my heart that I have to act out in ugly ways?
We don't have to let things escalate. Just because we are hurt, does not mean that we have to share that hurt/inflict that hurt upon others.
A soft answer turns away wrath.
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
