When you are upset, you can do nothing right - What say you all ?

Question

Try to imagine the silent agony of a man decorated for "bravery" beyond the call of duty, whose motivation was the hatred of his father that he vented it on the enemies !

At some point, your suffering may no longer be the fault of the world, your father, your mother or that molesting cad of a brother.
Can you lift yourself up by your bootstraps, surely not?
Take heart, all is not lost.

It was only the way we all go about saving ourselves, that is hopeless.

Whenever we are upset, you can do nothing right. On the other hand, when you are calm and centered, you can do nothing wrong. If you find yourself condemned by others, it will be for your noble character, so endure it patiently.

Do not take things so personally. Fearlessly speak your mind. Take appropriate action and you shall never suffer anxiety or depression.

In fact, the cure of your past and the blessing of the future lie in dealing perfectly in the present with imperfect people!

What's your thoughts on these-What say U?

Answer 1

We are far too indulgent of emotions. Clear your mind and the suffering ends. It is a choice that any of us can make.

Directing hostility at another is a character flaw.

Answer 2

If you can do nothing right when you are upset, that is lack of control.
If you are a product of an abusive environment, you are usually quite detached and logical, with anger the second layer.
You may logically put everything that happened to you in the past into perspective.
But emotionally that is a different story.
It is your choice to move on without the rotting carcass of the past.
Learning from the past not constantly living in it.
Just a thought.....

Answer 3

To your first half: consider the arguement of Nature vs. Nurture.

To the second, we weren't meant to be calm and happy all of our existence, what is laughter without tears. It means nothing. Do not tell me we are without choice when we are upset. And as much as I may wish it, the worst damage can come when you are calm. Caught unawares the act once done is unrescendable. My biggest mistakes, in my naivette, were during lulls in the action. I spoke in jest. It meant something to the other person. I took something from her and I will never ever be so stupid again, but I was happy; I was calm when I said it, but in the calm before the storm all is coming to an end.
