JUST PHILOSOPHISING - ON AVOIDING ANNOYANCE ESCALATING TO DESTRUCTIVE ANGER AND RAGE! PART 1.

Anger is one of, if not the most destructive of all the emotional drivers which fuel the actions of us humans. 

It is probably the most costly of all of our emotional states. It can easily and irreparably wreck our relationships with each other and between peoples. 

Anger can be ruthless and reckless in its manifestation, its expression. 

It can literally destroy all the good which had been built up, between peoples and nations over years, in a matter of minutes, hours, days, months or years. 

Anger is not a fitting state of being where any person should seek refuge, shelter or satisfaction. 

Nothing which is born of anger, is likely to be of significant value. That is not the way of anger. 

Anger tends to be impatient towards reason and unresponsive to any but its own logic. It tends to feed on its own internal logic and rationale. 

Which causes it to grow bigger and stronger; being even more repellent of attempts to deflate it.

Anger can arise from the sense of dissatisfaction a person feels and experiences from having their expectations of someone or of a particular situation, being frustrated.  

And not resulting in the outcome they expect or want from it. Anger can have a tendency towards become 'self-justified.' 

With the responsibility for it and its consequences being externalised, instead of being internalised.

Anger yearns to get compliance by generating fear and frightening people into doing what the expressor desires to take place. 

And, if this is not successful, then anger can escalate into rage, which becomes intent on tearing apart, to punish, to offend, to dominate and to destroy. 

Such are the destructive objectives of anger and rage.
