Anger produces anger

In this world, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Like for instance, when sound is produced in an open area or an empty room, the same sound comes back to us in the form of an echo. Another very suitable example is of the abstract noun very widely used- Anger. This negative element is very much into practice. The people, who have seen anger, will show anger. We can say that anger produces anger. The softest target for this practice is children. If they show anger, where does it come from? The answer is- from their parents, teachers, television, media and the society. They see anger around and learn to behave in the same way. Their mistakes are followed by scolding and discouragement which is the cause of lack of self- confidence. Instead of being encouraged to do better next time and learn from their mistakes, they face criticism and get disheartened. They stop trying out new activities and hence, all this leads to a narrow view of the world. In defense they become introvert and instead of trying out new things, they say a straight ‘NO’ or show anger. This anger bars the creativity of children and they start thinking in a particular way or direction. Slowly, these negative aspects creep into their lives and with their growth, these qualities take a place in their character, personality and body language. These children, who, when grow up, behave in the same way as they were subjected to and their attitude regarding their responsibilities towards the society is also of the same kind. They give what they got- anger. Isn’t this a kind of crime? Why are we creating cruel beings out of pure and innocent minds leading to disturbance in society? We need to make this place a better one by being kind, good and polite to everyone which will produce able, responsible and creative human beings and ultimately a happy society. Life is too short for anger and sadness, let’s live with happiness and spread positive vibes around. A good deed or a good word always shines and enlightens the world.

Anger is the root cause of all the evils in the society.The result of showing anger on children is being felt all across different sections of society today. We need to eliminate anger and foster peace and harmony among people. Life is too short for always living in anger and efforts should be made so that all the people in the society live peacefully.
