Anger and foolishness

   

Responding quickly to aggravation, threat, insult, or difficulty suggests strength to many folks Jul2012. However, responding hastily out of anger is foolish. This response seldom produces the desired long term effect and nearly always compounds the problems that need to be addressed. Patiently dealing with frustrating and painful situations shows understanding and is nearly always more fruitful in the long run.

Proverbs 14:29

A patient man has great understanding, but a quick-tempered man displays folly.
