Anger is an unwanted, unneeded, and all around ridiculous emotion that everybody falls back on. We only fall back on anger because it's a lot like cruise control, it takes over our bodies' reactions and speech systems simultaneously. We don't have to do anything at all, we just let our anger get the best of us. Most people think anger is an emotion that signifies that you are a bad person, but don't listen to those idiots because they get angry too. I bet the people who do think that are mad now that I called them idiots. Anyways if we can control anger we can control every single part of our bodies even in the most ridiculous and annoyed moods. Now anger causes people to do many things, most of those people regret what anger caused them to do. I bet if you could do over a situation without any anger existing within you that that very same situation would have gone a little bit different or a lot different, depending on the situation, of course. I just so happened to have finished watching a movie that had a lot to do about anger. It was called "Teen Wolf", it is a tad older than most movies but it's still a great movie all the same. The kid Howard has to control his ability to change into a werewolf, so far excitement and anger both change him but anger takes control over what he does. I've experienced a dream about that once, I had the ability to change into a werewolf by choice but it also happened whenever I was scared and especially took control when I got angry. In my dream I was running away from a crowd of extremely scary creatures, I started out on foot but as I went further and further I felt as though I were running through quicksand and every step I took slowed me down more and more. The very second both my hands touched the ground I experienced speed, on all four legs, like never before. I got away from them but later on they caught up to me and I got so scared that I became angry of the fact that I was scared of something so stupid and weak compared to myself. So as soon as my blood began pumping faster, the anger ripped through my body like claws trying to get out. I quickly changed into a werewolf and began killing these creatures and I couldn't stop myself. My anger was like cocaine to the werewolf part of me, it not only fueled me, it also made me extremely energetic and merciless. I became afraid of myself from that point on, knowing that my anger can force me to do things I'll regret as well as make many mistakes. From then on I've tried several ways to stay cool-headed. One way I use a lot is to just stop whatever was making me angry even if it was just for a moment and process what exactly is making me angry, I realized just how naive and redundant I looked being mad over something so simple and silly. While I'm doing something and it isn't going the way I want I usually get angry but lately I've stopped myself from doing things like punching holes in the wall or even breaking items that I might have needed later. Of course since I'm human though I haven't been able to control all of what I say. That part doesn't really bother me that much because words are just words when used in anger but when they come from the heart they means so much more. If I were to get angry right now and be so livid that I would want to destroy something just to satisfy it, I would stop and think about all the things I could destroy to be honest but that usually gets me on the tough topic of how to fix it once I break it and that turns into "If I can't fix it, how much would it cost to replace it?" Then as what usually happens from there is I think about how much I've saved up so far then what I could buy with all the saved up money. I think way, way outside the box, most of the time.
I've written too much as is so I'll leave my beloved readers with this new question: "If the world were at the brink of extinction because of war, how would you try to change the world before human civilization ended?"
