Staying angry isn't my thing

avatar

It's not possible for every human not to get angry but it is possible and different with each person how to tend to control that anger and become happy again or stay angry. I don't know if we're many but I'm one of those few who find it hard to stay angry at people around me.

The question asked to share that one person (or people if more than one) that I can't stay angry at... The thing is, I don't know how to stay angry even with a stranger.

They say, only your loved ones are more able to hurt you and you have to pardon them regardless. Strangers may hurt you but it's never the same when it is done by a loved one. In my case, strangers hardly get me pissed off. It's always my family and friends who get me angry but staying angry with them never works out well for me.

Since there are many people I can't stay angry with... I'll share a few stories of how I can't stay angry with my loved ones.

I remember when I was still very young and living with my aunt who has a son almost same age as my younger sister. We were all living together happily but there was always a time when this cousin of mine pisses me off so badly, I remember we fought once as a result of it (I'm not a fighter though) but the next minute, we were seen eating together and chatting like it never happened.

Most of the time, I forget that I'm angry with someone...

My siblings and I would have our quarrel moment one minute and the next minute, we're singing happily together like we never quarrel as a family. Oh how I hate to stay angry at my dad and my mum, I just have to take in whatever they do because I believe they do it for my good sake... Although not all.

I once tried staying angry with my cousin and I succeeded for an hour because I was so determined to change his ways of being too mischievous, I can remember the number of times I was tempted to talk to him but held myself back. Well, he did his usuals and got me laughing so hard that we forgave each other.

Staying angry with a loved one might hurt your loved one but I tell you, it hurts you more because you're the one who's angry... Anger isn't a good feeling at all and that is why I always try to stay happy no matter what (glad I have so many ways to do that now).

Instead of staying angry at someone, why not talk it out, laugh over it and be free? Anger takes one nowhere except the quick anger moment to correct and get rid of a mistake. Learn to be happy again even when you got annoyed by someone (it happened because you love that person) you've got to forgive and move on.

It's easier said than done, one might say... But I'll tell you, it's worth giving it a try for one's peace of mind.

Actually its almost same to me. Me and my sister quarrels in every moment but after some times all things become normal. No anger.
Thanks for sharing with us ❤

Peace of mind is a luxury 👌 we are different beings that act differently but then, anger is not something to be proud of, it's not something we should allow to eat us up even if we are angry with a stranger, it shouldn't last long.

Getting angry with our siblings is never a serious something but it's nice if we should extend it to strangers as well ☺️
Thanks for sharing 👍

Looks like we are on the same page with this anger of a thing. I barely get angry and even if I do, I try not to hurt anyone's feelings mentally or physically.

Anger drains a lot of energy from me so I just do away with it.

This story means you will be good wife material 😃😃
Anyway, I will say it's just a wonderful gift that God gave.

We are even on the same page because once I got angry, I will forget it at that moment.
It's just a gift , and it's very nice because you have a clean heart.

Time and time again, I’ve sworn I’ll always remember certain bad things people in my family have done to me, but I forget them as soon as they do something good to me again. I think this is a very good habit. Being angry and bitter for a long time is energy draining.

The same is true for me, @merit.ahama .
I couldn't hold my rage for long. But I'm going to give myself the benefit of the doubt.
Not only to strangers, but to everyone I come into contact with.
When we are hurt by someone we love, we tend to build a wall and refuse to allow them to hurt us any longer.

That's understandable for some things not to repeat itself again, just find your peace within as well

In order for me to sleep well at night, I must forgive those who did me wrong, but I will remember not to fall into the same scam again.

I think maybe it depends on the severity of the situation, I can hold a grudge for a lifetime family or not, I'm not cold hearted at all , but I wont let somethings pass
