I'm not of that kind. I never get angry so easily. To the maximum I would try to be cool. I read in a journal that anger can make our lungs weaker beause of a hormone..How about you? Are you short tempered person or can you control your anger?

Oh..no ..don't do it again. Your boss is not going to stop that if you drink. But your health will only be affected.

I used to have a really short temper. I used to get ticked off really easily and then I'd be angry for a pretty long time. However, I don't get that mad anymore. I may get frustrated, I may get angry, but I just do not take it to the level that I used to. Things that would have bothered me a few years ago just don't bother me much anymore. I'm able to really put a lot of things behind me that used to tick me off now. I'm not sure what changed I just know it's a lot easier.

Yes, as time goes on, we really become more mature. You will never care for those things that disturbed you few years back. It is afterall a good and welcoming change.

It takes alot to make me angry....really alot. I don't think there is alot in life that is worth getting angry about unless someone I love is getting hurt....then watch out. So basically I can control my anger....which I also have heard is not the best for you....holding it inside is just as bad!

yes, you should have some form of outlet. BUt it is necessary only when you get angry but you control it. As far as you do not get angry at all, it is very good.

before, i was really a short tempered person, i would get angry easily for small thinks, but now i tried hard to control my temper, coz being angry so easily dont have any good benefits at all, it just usually results to quarrel, and being angry always can make you ugly...hahahaha...lol =)

You are right. Anger does not have any positive effects. Good that you have got the maturity to control your anger.

yes, Nobody can make us unhappy unless we allow them to. Avoiding unncessary things into the brain itself will make a person happy.
