Unsolicited Advice at 5:05 AM [Inspired by Nagbabagang Damdamin ng Masa]


Today.is.anger.management.day.

There are days when plastering a big old smile on my face is extremely difficult.  Today, my face officially went numb from the eyebags down.  I have exposed myself to all stages of anger, disappointment and frustration.  I dipped my curious fingers into boiling tempers and got burned.  My brain went to overdrive trying to empathize with mental tantrums going on around me.  My heart sank.  If only someone reminded people to breathe.  Stop for one second and just breathe.  In times like these, our only choice is to channel our energy into healthy, happy thoughts.  We need healthy, happy people to get through this.

Just when I decided to dedicate this post to my chaotic day, I remembered a song we used to sing back in elementary.  The memory is very vague and the only words I can recall are: "slow", "to" and "anger".  I googled it up and found 2 Bible verses where the song was probably based from:

James 1:19
Why, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:

Proverbs 14:29
He that is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit exalts folly.

After all, all we want is world peace.  Anger is such a downer.  Spread the love. Aja!

Note to self: There is an Invisible Mode in MOC.  When outside your shift, practice stealth mode.  Some people just do not have regard for human rights.
