Anger or Happiness, which will it be?

Anger! Ever just get so angry you could yell, scream, spit? Well I’ve been thinking about anger and how it affects a person whether you are the receiver of the anger or the mad man dishing it out!

Anger is something I haven’t seen too much of in China or experienced in the office. Yet the other day I had a person just dump a load of emotional drama on me. He felt the need to tell me why he disliked women in a most rude and disgusting fashion. I found I needed to stand up and say “Hey don’t talk like that to me”, and you know what happened…. “He said I insulted him!” Whew isn’t that interesting? So when you stand up and say you don’t want to hear that kind of language you are insulting the person throwing it out of their mouth. Needless to say that was the end of that relationship.

Yelp I just moved on. It became clear this was a “red flag” and one should steer clear of this person. Some people are mad at the world, at their choices in life, their relationships from the past, and they can’t seem to bury the hatchet and find peace, love and new relationships that are meaningful. Thank god for that lesson and the blessing of seeing an angry person that is no longer taking up space in my life.

Life is full of happiness, sunshine, great students and wonderful meaningful relationships. I am so glad I can see the good from the bad, and even better to leave the bees nest alone. We all have lessons to learn, mine is to stay away from angry men.
