The Danger of Anger

There is a saying, "An angry person opens the mouthand closes the eyes. Like a crocodile." It is said that an angry person transfers the effects of anger when he or she regains reasoning. Just as money stored in the bank will reap a dividend, so will the anger stored in the mind reap the returns of bitterness.

Whom or what do we fight with when we are angry? We fight with ourselves, and become, as it were, our worst enemy. We must try to eradicate to tally this dangerous enemy latent in our minds with a proper understanding of the situation. Anger grows stronger when fuled by emotion, especially when craving is behind that emotion. Anger can cost a person's reputation, job, friends, loved ones, peace of mind, health and even one's very own self.
