Most times, we are surprised at the rate at which people express anger especially over trivial matters and we start to wonder if what happened was all there is or there are other details we're not aware regarding the matter. Well, most times what a person express might be as a result of accumulated frustration mostly transfer of aggression that might have resulted from economic hardship, injustice and discrimination etc Also, it might be as a result of environmental factors such as being raised in a hostile environment where your parents tempers usually flare over trivial matters, as you grow older, you are more likely to respond to life's problems with anger...
Anger is a human emotion and emotions are an inherent part of human being. Anger should be viewed as a natural human characteristic. However if someones level of anger continues to escalate over time, there is almost certainly an underlying cause be it financial stress, social injustice or various psychological factors.
It is important to remember that anger must be managed. There are several techniques for controlling anger- with a little effort, one can recall and apply these methods in the heat of the moment to significantly diminish the intensity of the emotion. Simply taking three to four seconds to reflect on the situation before reacting can greatly reduce the intensity of one’s response.
Furthermore reacting impulsively out of anger is never a solution. If instead of acting on anger, one focuses on finding a resolution, the anger itself is likely to subside.
It is also worth noting that nothing good ever comes from anger. Words spoken in the middle of the moment can never be taken back and this often leads to the deterioration of relationships with those we hold dear.
Therefore, when we feel angry, we should pause before responding or if possible, remain silent and step away. At the very least, we must learn to exercise self control during moments of anger. By doing so, we can better value our relationships and contribute to building a more harmonious world.
