Cooling off our anger

There is much taking place in the world to get our anger boiling over. The trick is to find serenity at such a time. But how? Well, experts say the first thing we should do is slow down our emotional reaction by pausing to take a breath and just pause – maybe even count to ten. If it’s another person causing the reaction, let’s lower our voices. Our noise can even cause ourselves to not think clearly. Paul’s love standards are impossible to keep – but they do set a high bar. Find the good in the other person or a better result of the problem by at least seeking a more loving reaction. “Love is patient, love is kind….does not demand its own way…. Use the common sense reasoning power God gave us…..what’s the rush? Let’s try to resolve the conflict slowly and steadily – with love.
