7 Reasons Not to Speak When You Are Angry

October 29, 2015

Seven things to think about before you open your mouth…
1. You may not know all the facts.
2. You may speak too quickly.
3. You may say too much.
4. You may use the truth as a club to hurt others.
5. You may say something you regret later.
6. You may hurt innocent bystanders.
7. You may reveal your own weakness.

~Dr. Ray Pritchard

    +bri rich So glad this could help you. I don't promote any type of anger via all my posts. Sending you many smiles. You must be the master of your anger, your mind. Do not allow the mind to conquer you. Peace be upon you always.

    +Jendhamuni Sos This picture of this butterfly and its reflection are so APPROPRIATE for your post. I love your words and quotes they are always very calming and help me to want to be a better person.

    The list today is important bc it shows how we need to reflect within ourselves and think about what we say before we say something hurtful that may taint the way that others see us.

    Anger is an emotion&when you get emotional, You are irrational.One more reason for us not to get angry. Friends! Temper is a very precious thing, Don't loose it.

    That*s why JESUS says in the book of John I ONLY SAY WHAT THE FATHER TELLS ME another verse out of GOD'S WORD PLACE A WATCH BEFORE YOUR MOUTH SO THAT YOU WILL NOT SIN and the word also states the fact that the tongue is not easily to tame and how true is that

    Don’t let life discourage you; everyone who got where he is had to begin where he was.

My Reflection

This site is a tribute to Buddhism. Buddhism has given me a tremendous inspiration to be who and where I am today. Although I came to America at a very young age, however, I never once forget who I am and where I came from. One thing I know for sure is I was born as a Buddhist, live as a Buddhist and will leave this earth as a Buddhist. I do not believe in superstition. I only believe in karma.

A Handful of Leaves

Tipitaka: The pali canon (Readings in Theravada Buddhism). A vast body of literature in English translation the texts add up to several thousand printed pages. Most -- but not all -- of the Canon has already been published in English over the years. Although only a small fraction of these texts are available here at Access to Insight, this collection can nonetheless be a very good place to start.
