Do not quickly be provoked in your spirit, for anger resides in the lap of fools.
When we react in anger all rational thoughts and solutions disappear from our minds. Our only focus when we are angry is to release it so we can be in balance again.
People deal with anger in different ways. Some become very vocal, yelling and screaming; some become aggressive and violent; still others turn it inward and become silent and pensive.
The solution to anger is found in the words of the Wise Man. If we are not quickly provoked we will have time to look at the situation more closely and in a rational way. We may be able to avert the energy- draining episode of anger and not exhibit behaviors of a fool.
