There are times when anger is so easy to overcome all other emotions because of stressful situations or to clear misunderstandings in arguments. But anger is dangerous for a multitude of reasons, not only looking at it from a physical health perspective, but also viewing it through a wellness, holistic, ethical and moral lens. Anger is very toxic. The emotion eradicates all positive feelings and promotes aggression. It affects our happiness and how we interact with others. What you put out to the universe is given back to you. It can not only affect personal relationships, but can spread to a wider sphere and affect how communities and other harmless individuals are treated.
Anger is the emotion we feel before we realize we are being irrational. Looking at it in a smaller, personal realm, like between family or friends, using anger can be the same as implementing a loss. But the scariest concept to think of is that in the bigger version of anger, sometimes it leads to causing loss. This evil emotion produces fear. It can be very strong, making it so easy to lash out. We often magnify our feelings. In the small, personal scenario, anger can control how we treat our loved ones even though they are the closest people we have. In a quick moment, anger can commandeer our entire being; it clouds our minds, pollutes our thoughts and litters our judgments. It creates the need for more security and the sense of safety slowly declines.
Now when looking at it on a bigger scale, a lot can happen with one source of anger. It is extremely dangerous. It no longer threatens a positive relationship; it threatens lives. We need acceptance, we need peace, and we need love. We need understanding, inclusivity, open-mindedness, positivity, and strength. If we upset the balance of our interaction with others based on anger, we upset the balance of the human race. We need to learn how to control our anger. Whether it is on a smaller scale involving something less widespread like sibling fighting, or whether it is on a bigger scale due to preconceived ideas, stigmas and stereotypes — we need to substitute anger with acceptance. It will not only help our own personal lives but will improve the harmony of the human connection and will spread peace to link people, instead of negativity, which consumes people.
