Anger management??



I had once read this quote about 'Anger' by Winston Churchill :
"A man is about as big as the things that make him angry"

Now trust me when I say this, I am really not an expert on anger management. That is precisely why I chose to identify myself as Veronica and not Betty. But I felt like, I knew something about it too. 

Today, without any provocation from my side, a tiny insect bit me reallllly hard. Not exaggerating folks, it was terribly painful. Within no time, there was a lump of swollen mass and a small tiny clot on my leg. My instant reaction was to kill the insect... but I didn't. :) Some achievement huh?, if thats what you are thinking, then let me tell you, it takes every ounce of your patience not to follow your anger. I stared at the bug with such vengeance, that it might probably think twice before biting anyone else. 

The quote is so right! If I got angry on a bug (read as a trivial issue), how small am I ? 
Don't let small things upset you, because you know that you are bigger than them. :)
