If you are lacking education, you will be lacking in
emotion and subject
to erupted when dangers present itself. When we erupt out of anger, we
are only throwing fuel on an existing fire. Most emotional problems stem
from faulty beliefs, teaching and thought, therefore education plays a
large role since you are learning from many sources that can teach you
how to behave in life. Unfortunately some of us don’t know which one
right or wrong.
Most of us are taught to think logically in all situations, but from
time to time illogical thinking can save a life. For example, reviewing
an incident can help us to appreciate faulty teachings, beliefs and
logic. A young woman is nearly murdered and finally escapes the hands of
the angered person, and instead of going with her basic instincts, she
decides to act out in accordance with what the people have taught,
believed in and assumed the logic would work.
It backfired and the woman was recaptured by the stalker and hurt
immensely. Now, if she would have adhered to her own thinking, belief
and teachings since she was a survivor experienced in trauma she would
have fared better. She believed by running to a lighted area would
provide her a source of relief. Instead, it only helped the culprit take
control.
If she would have trusted her self and ran to a dark area, she may have
escaped with fewer injuries. After the culprit recaptured her, she had
to use her emotions and head and avoid anger. Instead of joining in the
violent act, she submitted her self to the predator, praying that he
would stop. She thought about the scene carefully roaming her mind
searching for a way to escape.
There was none! She then wiped her blood on the man’s shirt believing
that if he killed her the evidence would help the police apprehend the
man. Fortunately, her prayers paid off since her car for no apparent
reason caught fire and drawn attention. If this woman had not used her
head to maneuver through the horrific incident to date she would be
dead. Now we can see that anger only enforces problems, rather than help
us to reduce the problems at hand.
If you feel you are overwhelmed with problems you might want to review
this account to see that your problems may be smaller than you have made
them. We all add problems to our life by stressing over things that are
not in our control. When we learn to take it one day at a time or
appreciate what we have, we are taking the steps to control our emotions
and life. And day after day we fix our behaviour, thought, life to a
better way.
Reasoning with the emotions to avoid anger is simply. If you are
thinking, negative thoughts flip it around and put the cards in your
hand. Life is like a game of poker and the leader has control since he
has the royal flush. You are holding a pair in your hand, but you have
control since the cards will be dealt again. When you are reviewing a
problem, take a look at both sides to see where you fit in the picture.
If you are
adhering to behaviors that instigate the problem, find a way to resolve
by taking a positive approach and deal with your anger. Good and bad
comes to us all, but the power is put in our hands by dealing with
emotions and reasoning with the source of the problem. The problem that
exist both in front or behind us is little problems than the problem
that exist inside of us.
