The bible has scripture which says, do not let the sun set on your anger. This means we have to settle the issue before the day ends. Why is this so? Anger is destructive. It eats you up. It invents high blood pressure. The longer you permit it to fester, the bigger the wound will become.
How to meditate and mediate on Anger:
- If it does not harm you, or harm the other person, talk to him/ her.
- Offer your apology.
- If you can’t be friends, then avoid engaging in more disagreements with him/ her.
- If you can’t talk to that person, then write a brief letter offering your apology. Be careful how you word your letter as it may be used against you if that person does not want to let the matter rest. Similarly, you might write a carefully worded email.
