"A fool vents all his feelings, but a wise man holds them back."
Proverbs 29:11
I don't have to say everything I feel. Popular advise is to vent anger to get it out of your system. But it's like Mt. St. Helens. When it blew, it caused all kinds of damage and harm to the surrounding area and even people far away. The volcano may have felt better, but it caused carnage around it as the blast, the lava and the ash cloud destroyed everything in its way. God's way is self-control. There are techniques to release anger so it doesn't fester in the person. One way is to "tell it to Jesus."
Today's Thought: The wise person controls his emotions rather than losing control of them.
Have a self-controlled day. Love you.
