Anger

We gets angry very fast and to overcome anger is difficult to do.
Often when we’ve been hurt by someone, our first response is to get angry.  Deep inside we want to punish someone as much as we feel we’ve been hurt but then Bahá’u'lláh teaches:
"Anger doth burn the liver: avoid [it] as you would a lion." ~  Bahá’u'lláh, The Compilation of Compilations vol. I, p. 460
Myvi got dented!  What's worst still, an initial polite phone call to the person who was going to pay for the repair turned sour......he was rude and  stubborn as we were trying to get this settled.  First time being so angry and scolded the old man and ending up feeling so bad. I realized we were trying to defend each other and he was trying to help his son after all, right?  Haizzz.........so said a prayer and hoping that everything would be settled with peace lah.....

I guess, anger doesn't really help.  
But I usually end up being silent and being ignorance........feels so terrible being hurt but it's still better than hurting other people's feeling, right?!!  :)
