LESSON 7 - If jealousy is the green eyed monster then anger is the red horned monkey!


Anger! No matter how hard we try, it comes almost to impossible to control the nasty words that come out from our mouths. 

I chose to speak about this lesson today because I am one of those that desperately needs help when it comes to controlling my anger. 

I was a very calm, happy and talkative person but ever since I got married, I turned into this uneasy, annoyed, paranoid, loud(screaming) , irritable, worrying , frustrated and extremely the opposite of who I was. This is one of the many reasons why I began this blog, to find myself again.

Don't get me wrong. I am not saying that my marriage changed me. Well it did a little. What I mean is that ever since I got married, I had alot of nasty things come my way.

People began to talk freely around me, things that I really do not want to hear!
I was expected to give my opinion about everything, as long as it made them happy!
Agree to whatever decisions are made, even if it suffocated me.
Learn never to expect gratitude from anybody.
Learn never to even jokingly complain about anything, people always take it seriously!
All of a sudden I am coming to know about peoples nasty habits and affairs.
No matter how hard I try to keep problems within the four walls, somehow it leaks.

It infuriates me everytime I have to face these issues!
Every marriage has its ups and downs, but thats what makes us strong and connected.

BASIC TRUTH - When the red monkey burns my skull, hold my mouth shut and stay in the bathroom for an hour.
