This week @ladiesofhive Contest, makes us reflect on our shortcomings and how we deal with them.
The 2 questions of this week are:
1️⃣ We all have a different boiling point, some of us are easily angered, others are really cool tempered. Kindly share one thing that makes you angry, how long do you stay mad, and what or who can pacify you.
Or
2️⃣ What is your favorite snack or snacks? Share photos of them if you can.
I choose to answer the first one.
As such I am a person with a very cool temperament. It takes quite a lot of effort to get me angry. I do not keep getting angry often or on anything and everything. I like to keep myself calm and composed under all situations. But that does not mean that I never get angry, there are somethings that really gets me angry to the point that I can be upset for days.
The few things that really gets me mad is Speaking Lies, Spreading Rumors, Corruption and Bribery. I cannot hold myself if I get to know that someone is lying to me. I have no tolerance to these type of dramas in life. I believe that no matter whatever the situation is one must face it with truth because lies never go a long way, and spreading rumors is either sabotaging someone's image or spreading wrong information that can become harmful for someone.
No relationship can last on a lie, be it anyone. Once the trust is broken it becomes difficult to ever believe in that person again. It takes a lot to build a relationship of trust and respect. Again it's not like every lie is harmful, sometimes people speak lies to handle a situation more sensitively. I do not condemn that, an understanding it required for every situation. I get angry on situations where people speak lies for personal gains and to cheat someone. I believe these people are cowards who have no ethics or values in life.
Corruption is one another thing that gets me very mad. Sadly it is at every stage of life these days, but if I am personally put in any such situation, I will not give in so easily. I have had some fights with cops also on this. It is not what I would like to encourage, and this is one thing where I really fight it out. I like to keep myself away from these type of situations.
My way of dealing with my anger is a little different. I never scream and shout or any such actions. If I am angry, I tell the person the problem I have with them and then I become quiet and never want to talk to that person again. That's for sure that I do not keep it within me. I let the person know that I do not appreciate their actions and then I cut off the person from my life.
When people talk behind someone's back and say somethings, it is not what I want to encourage, it annoys me a lot. So I prefer to cut off such people also from my life.
I like straightforward relations without any fuss in them.
The other things that get me angry is when things are not kept in their place at home. I will not say exactly that I get angry but it annoys me a lot, but this is one thing that over a period of time I have learnt to tolerate, but not much. Because my husband and son are exactly opposite me. They keep leaving their things at any place in the house, and they tell me that they purposely do it to annoy me...hehehe.
Honestly, I do not even remember last when I was really very angry. That's not what I am at all. Even when my Son was small and in all his growing up I have never ever hit him. Just couple of times I must have raised my voice on him that's it. My patience level is very high and I do not like to disturb my peace of mind for anything. I do not feel it's worth it.
We all get angry for something or the other at some point of time, but important is how fast we can get out of it. Because it's never good to stay in this feeling for a long time. I do not get angry often, but my problem is that when I really get angry, the situation plays on my mind for a long time, which I know is not good for me.
I will like to invite my dear @taliakerch to participate in this contest.

Having a very cool temperament and understanding the consequences of getting angry is amazing. It takes self-control and discipline to come to a point like that where we don't let things take our own peace. Unfortunately, things like lying can still do that to us. The challenge is how to get out of the emotion quickly.
You are right, it is a lot of effort. It is easy to blow off and as difficult to stay in control, but as you say somethings can still annoy us no matter however calm and composed we are
That's very true. The good thing is we can get through them :)
You have good reasons to be angry and I share them all, it's funny the last one which is the mess your husband and kids generate, I'm glad your tolerance is good enough for them.
@nainaztengra 😉
Hahaha....I do not have a choice, else I will keep blowing up every single day. In a way they teach me tolerance :-)
