The Big Two O |
Posted at Thursday, April 17, 2008 |
20 days to go. It's Thursday. Got an exam on Saturday... Gotta start studying.. Gotta stop working at night... Gotta wait for you to come out... Oh well, gonna blog first and shutdown my laptop and go study. That'll do it.
Ok, I'm just going to carry on a little from yesterday. Yesterday, I said not to argue unnecessarily. Today, it's not to lose your temper unnecessarily. Or better still, don't lose it at all. Every one has a different fuse - some shorter than others. You'll find your parents to be quite different in terms of how we handle our tempers. We both have our bad points so well, I hope you pick up only on the good.
Whenever you find something that really makes you angry, try to put yourself in the shoe of the other person. Try to understand why the person did the things he did. Maybe he was brought up differently - so maybe he's just doing what was natural to him. Through understanding, you may find things to be just that little bit easier to swallow and accept. And thereby, your temper may cool somewhat.
And when you find it really hard to control, just take a hike. Sometimes it's better to do and say nothing than to find yourself doing or saying something you will regret later. Anger is an ugly beast - always remember that and never let it get the better of you. |
