Today, something happened that made Ryan really angry and hurt. During a group discussion, Michael not only stopped his speech on purpose but also called his idea stupid in front of their classmates. Ryan tried to explain himself, but then Michael encouraged the other classmates to laugh at him.
Later, Ryan went to his best friend, Jerry, and angrily told him what had happened. After listening, Jerry suggested that Ryan write a letter to Michael.
“You can really give him a piece of your mind,” Jerry said. Ryan quickly wrote a strongly worded letter and then showed it to Jerry.
“Right, right,” Jerry said loudly. “This is exactly what I want. Give him a good scolding(责骂). You wrote it really well, Ryan.”
But when Ryan was about to put the letter into an envelope, Jerry stopped him and asked, “What are you going to do with it?”
“Send it,” Ryan replied, confused.
“Don’t be silly,” Jerry said. “You can’t send this letter. Throw it onto the stove. That’s what I do with letters I write when I'm angry. This letter is well-written. Writing it helped you let out your anger, right? Now you are not in low spirits, are you? So burn it and leave the anger behind.”
When people are angry, their words and actions can lose their sense. People driven by the fire of anger can not only burn others but also burn themselves. So, when you are burning with anger, take a deep breath. Control your feelings and think about your actions to avoid terrible results.
