"When

anger rises, think of the consequences"-Confucius

or others, characterized by a desire, whether internalized or expressed, to engage in
aggressive retaliation.

Anger is one mans attitude that leads him to an unhappy and meaningless life. Anger is

peace. His heart, mind or the entire self is always in bad disposition, bothered, disturbed
and annoyed. He is always upset, in distress, in sorrow, in pain and in suffering. He
considers the people around him as an enemies and antagonists. He sees and perceives
the world as a disturbance, violent and not in harmony. Because he does not have an
inner peace within himself, he views life negatively and depressingly. Bad behaviors and
of course anger are the ones controlling and influencing his whole life.

the right degree, and at the right time, and for the right purpose, and in the right way,
that is not within everybody's power, that is not easy.
